About our wood floor repair in Soberton Heath

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with dents from dropped items and burns, we can usually put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Soberton Heath customers choose us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One visit for most repairs

Take a look at our pricing.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SO32 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Soberton Heath as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Questions from Soberton Heath

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
