About our wood floor repair in Stoke Newington

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We are often asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Common questions in Stoke Newington

Is there a guarantee?

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

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you cover Stoke Newington?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Repairing versus replacing in Stoke Newington

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 booking.

Materials we repair

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

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
