Wood floor repair for Portskerra homes

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

About our wood floor repair in Portskerra

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Common questions in Portskerra

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you cover Portskerra?

We do. We send a technician to Portskerra for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What affects the price in Portskerra

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire floor

If you are in Portskerra and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Portskerra

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
