Wood floor repair near Upper Hardres

Wood floor repair in Upper Hardres without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match 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 parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Upper Hardres questions

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Upper Hardres included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Landlord and trade work in Upper Hardres

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Upper Hardres, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business

Take a look at our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
