Wood floor repair in Tinkers Cross without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we’re called out for in Tinkers Cross

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

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

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

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Tinkers Cross

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Tinkers Cross. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tinkers Cross use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Common questions in Tinkers Cross

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you come to Tinkers Cross?

We do. We send a technician to Tinkers Cross for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One visit for most repairs

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  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. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
