Wood floor repair near Sandford

Wood floor repair at your home in Sandford

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can normally put it right, on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

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

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Sandford

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you come to Sandford?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Sandford. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandford

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sandford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

Most clients in Sandford get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, 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.
