How we handle wood floor repair in Tonwell

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tonwell and across Hertfordshire. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What a repair can’t fix

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Questions from Tonwell

How do I book?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the whole of Hertfordshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Tonwell and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Do you cover Tonwell?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Are there extra charges for Tonwell?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What affects the price in Tonwell

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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

  • Dents from dropped items
