How we handle wood floor repair in Porth Teigr

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Porth Teigr

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common problems we fix in Porth Teigr

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended

FAQs for Porth Teigr

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Porth Teigr. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
