Wood floor repair for Whiston Cross homes

Wood floor repair at your home in Whiston Cross

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, we can normally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price wood floor repair

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

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you’re in Whiston Cross and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

Get a quote

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your WV7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
