Wood floor repair in Woodford

Wood floor repair in Woodford, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Advice

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

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

Materials we work on in Woodford

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When to call us in Woodford

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

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repairing versus replacing in Woodford

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
