Trusted wood floor repair in Shardlow

Wood floor repair in Shardlow without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, we can help, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One picture of the whole floor
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Shardlow, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

FAQs for Shardlow

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

What we’re called out for in Shardlow

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Look out for these signs:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Before you book anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to look after the finish

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shardlow

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
