Wood floor repair for Shawford homes

Landlord and trade work in Shawford

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How we handle wood floor repair in Shawford

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We work on solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and burns.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Shawford, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

Common questions in Shawford

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Are there extra charges for Shawford?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What wood floor repair costs

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
