Wood floor repair in Bethersden

How we handle wood floor repair in Bethersden

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets, in engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bethersden and across Kent. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Bethersden. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Common questions in Bethersden

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

Across the UK, so Bethersden is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bethersden. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

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’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
