Wood floor repair in South Hampstead, done in place

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to South Hampstead. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you’re in South Hampstead and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Hampstead

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Honest limits

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

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in South Hampstead

Common questions in South Hampstead

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

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

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
