Trusted wood floor repair in Shepshed

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No need to remove anything

Wood floor repair at your home in Shepshed

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are burns and scratches from furniture and pets.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole floor

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 you book.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
