Book wood floor repair in Way

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Way as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Wood floor repair in Way without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We are often asked to fix burns and dents from dropped items, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Common questions in Way

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What happens on the day

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

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What affects the price in Way

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most customers in Way get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
