Wood floor repair for Rackheath homes

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

First the damaged area is cleaned.
Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
We level the repair to the board surface.
We match the colour and grain by hand.
Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Advice

New-build snagging: repairing chips and scratches

Wood floor repair in Rackheath without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, we can help, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

FAQs for Rackheath

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Repairing versus replacing in Rackheath

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it 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.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
