Wood floor repair for Wilton homes

About our wood floor repair in Wilton

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We’re often asked to fix burns and chipped board edges, in solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wilton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
