Wood floor repair in Ruishton

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Wood floor repair in Ruishton, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Our repair technicians work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ruishton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ruishton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Ruishton

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
