Wood floor repair for Totland homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

About our wood floor repair in Totland

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Totland as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

FAQs for Totland

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you cover the whole of Isle of Wight?

We cover the entire UK, including Totland and the rest of Isle of Wight. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Do you come to Totland?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Totland from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Totland. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Totland. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Totland, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
