What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in South Kirkby

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.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Wakefield and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in South Kirkby?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

FAQs for South Kirkby

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

The process

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

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
