Wood floor repair for Thorpe Astley homes

Wood floor repair in Thorpe Astley without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s burns and chipped board edges, we can normally put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When to call us in Thorpe Astley

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Questions from Thorpe Astley

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, 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.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Thorpe Astley is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

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

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thorpe Astley

For anyone letting property in or around Thorpe Astley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Thorpe Astley. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
