Choosing a repair company

About our wood floor repair in Sherford

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We work on solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring, and people most frequently call us about scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

Most customers in Sherford get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlord and trade work in Sherford

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

FAQs for Sherford

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
