Need wood floor repair in Staverton?

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we handle wood floor repair in Staverton

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Typical jobs include burns and gouges from moving appliances, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Staverton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How to compare quotes

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace in Staverton?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Staverton, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Staverton

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
