Wood floor repair in Southill

What wood floor repair costs

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through 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.

Wood floor repair in Southill, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our technicians work on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about wood floor repair in Southill

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Southill

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairing versus replacing in Southill

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Southill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
