Questions from Whale Hill

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Whale Hill and the rest of Middlesbrough. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Wood floor repair at your home in Whale Hill

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and burns, on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

10 questions to ask before booking

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Whale Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TS6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Whale Hill customers choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
