Wood floor repair near Westenhanger

Wood floor repair at your home in Westenhanger

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Typical jobs include chipped board edges and burns, on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Westenhanger

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westenhanger as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Westenhanger, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
