Wood floor repair in Windy Arbour

Common questions in Windy Arbour

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Windy Arbour is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Windy Arbour. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Windy Arbour, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Windy Arbour

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood

What affects the price in Windy Arbour

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Windy Arbour. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, 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

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your WN5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
