Wood floor repair for Yelverton homes

Wood floor repair in Yelverton, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and people most frequently call us about dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances.

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

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

What to look for in a quote

Our hiring checklist

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Questions from Yelverton

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Yelverton?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Yelverton.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you come to Yelverton?

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you cover the whole of Devon?

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
