Wood floor repair in Wilsontown

Wood floor repair in Wilsontown without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  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. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we can’t put right

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wilsontown, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

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. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Common problems we fix in Wilsontown

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

Look out for these signs:

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