About our wood floor repair in Walter's Ash

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Questions from Walter's Ash

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Buckinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you come to Walter's Ash?

We do. We send a technician to Walter's Ash for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Walter's Ash, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we are called out for in Walter's Ash

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Burns

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Walter's Ash. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back

Most customers in Walter's Ash get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
