Book wood floor repair in Swan Valley

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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

Wood floor repair at your home in Swan Valley

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can help, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Swan Valley. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Swan Valley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Swan Valley, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
