Wood floor repair in Thelnetham 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 be honest about that. Typical jobs include burns and dents from dropped items, in engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

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

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

Thelnetham: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you cover Thelnetham?

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

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

Everywhere in the UK, Thelnetham included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What do you need from me?

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Thelnetham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
