How we handle wood floor repair in Woodlane

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 tell you if that’s the case. We are frequently asked to fix burns and scratches from furniture and pets, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Questions from Woodlane

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

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 tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Woodlane. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Woodlane
