FAQs for Wheelock

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there any odour?

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

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cheshire East.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Wood floor repair at your home in Wheelock

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We are frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Do you need wood floor repair in Wheelock?

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

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

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How to look after the finish
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

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

Materials we work on in Wheelock

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

We do not add 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.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wheelock. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wheelock as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
