Wood floor repair in Porthmadog

How we handle wood floor repair in Porthmadog

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for burns and chipped board edges, on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Porthmadog questions

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you cover the whole of Gwynedd?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Porthmadog. Prices don’t change with location.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Porthmadog

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Porthmadog use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
