Need wood floor repair in Redhall?

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

About our wood floor repair in Redhall

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Common questions in Redhall

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Redhall?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Redhall. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

About Redhall

Redhall is about 2 miles south-west of Edinburgh, in Edinburgh. Wherever you are in the EH14 postcode area, we come to you. Redhall is one of 175 towns and villages in Edinburgh where we work.

We cover every part of EH14, EH11 and EH13. That includes homes on Redhall Road, New Mart Road and Katesmill Road and the roads around them. Redhall is on the A71, which makes it straightforward to reach. If you’re just outside Redhall, we cover Parkhead (1 mile north-west), Longstone (1 mile west), Kingsknowe (1 mile south-west), Chesser (1 mile north-east) and Saughton (1 mile north-west). We also work in nearby towns such as Leith (5 miles north-east), Bonnington (4 miles north-east), Greenside (4 miles north-east), Broughton (4 miles north-east), Bellevue (4 miles north-east) and Silvermills (3 miles north-east).

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole floor
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
