Trusted wood floor repair in Ystradgynlais

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Ystradgynlais clients choose us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

About our wood floor repair in Ystradgynlais

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 is the case. Typical jobs include burns and scratches from furniture and pets, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Ystradgynlais questions

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you’re in Ystradgynlais and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ystradgynlais

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ystradgynlais use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

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.
