Wood floor repair in Starston

What affects the price in Starston

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Wood floor repair in Starston, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Typical jobs include burns and scratches from furniture and pets, on solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Choosing a repair company

Starston: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you work in Starston?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Starston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job 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. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated 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
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
