If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Wood floor repair in Washington without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and burns, we can help.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

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.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Washington

If you manage property in Washington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Repairing versus replacing in Washington

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

FAQs for Washington

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Are there extra charges for Washington?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do I need to be at home?

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