Need wood floor repair in Wigmore?

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

FAQs for Wigmore

Does someone need to be in?

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

How much does wood floor repair cost in Wigmore?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your LU2 postcode.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Is there a guarantee?

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts 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.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Luton and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Wigmore

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • 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, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Wigmore

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
