Wood floor repair for Small Heath homes

Repairing versus replacing in Small Heath

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. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we handle wood floor repair in Small Heath

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets, we can normally put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood alike.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 normally the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common problems we fix in Small Heath

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Small Heath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Small Heath: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Small Heath. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

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

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed price.
