Repairing versus replacing in Rowhook

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Wood floor repair at your home in Rowhook

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We’re often asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

If you manage property in Rowhook, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Advice

Questions from Rowhook

Do the materials smell?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

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

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Rowhook. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
