Wood floor repair in Welby without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and people most often call us about chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Signs you need wood floor repair in Welby

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
