Choosing a repair company

Wood floor repair at your home in St Cleer

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and burns.

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

Repairing versus replacing in St Cleer

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Cleer

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

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Questions from St Cleer

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
