Wood floor repair in Royston

Repairing versus replacing in Royston

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Royston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Take a look at our full price list.

Wood floor repair in Royston without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, we can help, on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Royston

For anyone letting property in or around Royston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What affects the price in Royston

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Royston. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Royston

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
