Wood floor repair near Rumney

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Rumney. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

About our wood floor repair in Rumney

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, in engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rumney

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rumney as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Rumney, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

What we are called out for in Rumney

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Rumney clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

FAQs for Rumney

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you cover Rumney?

We do. We send a technician to Rumney for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Rumney?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
