Need wood floor repair in Slack?

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Wood floor repair at your home in Slack

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We’re often asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and burns, in laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Does the room need clearing?

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Calderdale. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are there extra charges for Slack?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Slack. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Choosing a repair company

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

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 quote, not an estimate.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water

  • Underfloor damage

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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.
