Need wood floor repair in Stockwell?

When we would advise against a repair

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Wood floor repair in Stockwell without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.

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

Stockwell: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you work in Stockwell?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stockwell for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Landlord and trade work in Stockwell

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place

Read our pricing.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Signs you need wood floor repair in Stockwell

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Burns

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

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 normally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price
