Trusted wood floor repair in Puddledock

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. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Puddledock. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

About our wood floor repair in Puddledock

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most often call us about burns and scratches from furniture and pets.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

FAQs for Puddledock

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Puddledock use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Puddledock and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

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

What we work on

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