Wood floor repair for Wanlockhead homes

Wood floor repair at your home in Wanlockhead

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and burns, across solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Wanlockhead

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it

Common questions in Wanlockhead

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

How soon can you come?

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

Do you cover Wanlockhead?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wanlockhead for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wanlockhead

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Common problems we fix in Wanlockhead

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

Look out for these signs:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Aftercare advice
