Wood floor repair in Shackleford, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. If you are dealing with gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shackleford use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Advice

Repair or replace in Shackleford?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you are in Shackleford and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Do you need wood floor repair in Shackleford?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What a repair can’t 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood
