Wood floor repair in Wansford

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Wood floor repair at your home in Wansford

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, we can normally put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wansford use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairing versus replacing in Wansford

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. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
