Wood floor repair in Sunnybrow without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Sunnybrow and across County Durham. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sunnybrow

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sunnybrow use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Sunnybrow questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Sunnybrow?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you come to Sunnybrow?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges

How to compare quotes

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Sunnybrow, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Sunnybrow

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We leave the room as we found it
