How we handle wood floor repair in Shotover Hill

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you’re dealing with gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Shotover Hill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Your questions about wood floor repair in Shotover Hill

Are you accredited?

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

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

What areas do you cover?

All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shotover Hill

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shotover Hill as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Advice

What affects the price in Shotover Hill

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole floor

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
