Wood floor repair in Wiston

About our wood floor repair in Wiston

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Wiston and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

How we price wood floor repair

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

When to call us in Wiston

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
