Wood floor repair for Rushmere St Andrew homes

Wood floor repair in Rushmere St Andrew, done in place

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and burns.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
