Wood floor repair for Swithland homes

Wood floor repair at your home in Swithland

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for burns and chipped board edges, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Common problems we fix in Swithland

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to look after the finish
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Swithland: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Swithland and the rest of Leicestershire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do you come to Swithland?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Swithland. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Swithland.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
