Trusted wood floor repair in Wickham

Wood floor repair at your home in Wickham

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We work on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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 photos.

What we’re called out for in Wickham

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

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Laminate flooring

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Wickham, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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

Wickham: your questions answered

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Wickham. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
