Wood floor repair for Preston homes

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

About our wood floor repair in Preston

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Preston as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Preston. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Preston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
