Wood floor repair for Tuckton homes

Wood floor repair in Tuckton, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We are frequently asked to fix dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Tuckton. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BH6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start 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.
