Trusted wood floor repair in Stanford Common

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 before you book.

What we work on

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

How we handle wood floor repair in Stanford Common

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can typically put it right, on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole floor

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

10 questions to ask before you book

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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
