Wood floor repair for Wilbarston homes

About our wood floor repair in Wilbarston

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We are often asked to fix chipped board edges and burns, across engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

Landlord and trade work in Wilbarston

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wilbarston use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

Wilbarston: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Wilbarston?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What affects the price in Wilbarston

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Wilbarston. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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