Trusted wood floor repair in West Marden

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How we handle wood floor repair in West Marden

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We’re frequently asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

West Marden questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is it messy?

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

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Are there extra charges for West Marden?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

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

What we work on

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