Trusted wood floor repair in Priestwood

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Wood floor repair in Priestwood without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and burns, on solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Repair or replace in Priestwood?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price
