Trusted wood floor repair in Richmond Hill

Wood floor repair at your home in Richmond Hill

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We are frequently asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and burns, in laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

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

Repair or replace in Richmond Hill?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Richmond Hill

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bournemouth and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Richmond Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  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. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise 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.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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 won’t last.
