Wood floor repair in South Harrow

How we handle wood floor repair in South Harrow

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in South Harrow and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

South Harrow: your questions answered

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in South Harrow?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Harrow

For anyone letting property in or around South Harrow, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

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 works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot 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. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, 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. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
