Wood floor repair for Steps homes

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How we handle wood floor repair in Steps

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, we can usually put it right, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Repairing versus replacing in Steps

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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 match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Common questions in Steps

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kirklees.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Just around the damaged area.

What does wood floor repair cost?

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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 is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Steps. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Steps. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kirklees and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
