About our wood floor repair in Sandon

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, we can generally put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

10 questions to ask before you book

FAQs for Sandon

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
