Need wood floor repair in South Wimbledon?

Wood floor repair in South Wimbledon without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.

In a London flat like many in South Wimbledon, lifting a floor is a big job. Wood floor repair in place leaves everything else alone.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in South Wimbledon as everywhere else we work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Your questions about wood floor repair in South Wimbledon

Do you work for schools and businesses in South Wimbledon?

Yes, and we are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited. We’ll agree timings that suit the building.

Do you work for landlords with property near Wimbledon station?

Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do.

Do you cover the whole of Greater London?

We cover the whole UK, including South Wimbledon and the rest of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you come to South Wimbledon?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to South Wimbledon from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes. Many jobs in South Wimbledon are in flats, so we come prepared for stairs and narrow hallways. We bring compact kit, and the room is sheeted before we start.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

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

Repair or replace in South Wimbledon?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. For a flat in South Wimbledon, replacement can also disturb neighbours below and need the building manager’s say-so. A repair is quieter and quicker.

Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for South Wimbledon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
