Choosing a repair company

Wood floor repair in Porlock Weir without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and burns, across engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Porlock Weir questions

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Repairing versus replacing in Porlock Weir

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Porlock Weir

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
