Wood floor repair at your home in Walwen

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include burns and scratches from furniture and pets, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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

What we’re called out for in Walwen

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace in Walwen?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
