Wood floor repair for West Monkton homes

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Wood floor repair in West Monkton, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

For landlords and businesses

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

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.

West Monkton questions

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you come to West Monkton?

We do. We send a technician to West Monkton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

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.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
