Wood floor repair for South Shields homes

How we handle wood floor repair in South Shields

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

South Shields: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of South Tyneside. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you cover South Shields?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to South Shields and the rest of South Tyneside. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Repairing versus replacing in South Shields

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for South Shields. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in South Shields

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise 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.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire floor

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step

There’s 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. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  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. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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