How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Rise Carr

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Rise Carr. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, 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 before booking.

What we work on

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

Your questions about wood floor repair in Rise Carr

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can I fix it myself?

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

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
