Wood floor repair in Rhyd-y-gwin

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about burns and chipped board edges.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Rhyd-y-gwin questions

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is my repair covered?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Rhyd-y-gwin

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
