Book wood floor repair in Rusholme

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Rusholme. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

The price 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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

About our wood floor repair in Rusholme

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Rusholme as everywhere else we work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Rusholme: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of Greater Manchester?

The whole UK, including all of Greater Manchester. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Rusholme.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you work in Rusholme?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Rusholme. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Rusholme

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repair or replace in Rusholme?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
