Trusted wood floor repair in The Hale

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 before you book.

What we work on

  • Laminate flooring

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to The Hale. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

We price from photos 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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.
