Wood floor repair in Rubha Ban

About our wood floor repair in Rubha Ban

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are burns and dents from dropped items.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  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
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rubha Ban use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Rubha Ban. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Rubha Ban, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
