How we handle wood floor repair in Waverton

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We’re often asked to fix chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Questions from Waverton

What does wood floor repair cost?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How soon can you come?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 photos, as it can add time.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before booking

When to call us in Waverton

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Waverton

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Landlord and trade work in Waverton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
