Wood floor repair for Risley homes

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Wood floor repair in Risley without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are often asked to fix chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, across solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common questions in Risley

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Repair or replace in Risley?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our full price list.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

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

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

Surfaces we repair

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