Wood floor repair in Whitefield

How we handle wood floor repair in Whitefield

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The material

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

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

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
