Wood floor repair in Whitecross without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and burns.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlord and trade work in Whitecross

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your ST18 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it

Read our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

You do not 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.

When to call us in Whitecross

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site

What a repair cannot fix

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
