Trusted wood floor repair in Upper Swainswick

Wood floor repair at your home in Upper Swainswick

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. If you are dealing with dents from dropped items and burns, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Upper Swainswick

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

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Upper Swainswick questions

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you work in Upper Swainswick?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Upper Swainswick and the rest of Bath and North East Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Get a quote

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BA1 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

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

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
