About our wood floor repair in Shephall

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and burns, we can help, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Shephall. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Shephall. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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 match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Shephall

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What prep work is covered
