Book wood floor repair in Sketchley

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. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Wood floor repair in Sketchley, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Sketchley: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Leicestershire.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Sketchley included. There is no extra charge for travel.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are there extra charges for Sketchley?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

What affects the price in Sketchley

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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