Wood floor repair at your home in Bishopsbourne
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Common questions in Bishopsbourne
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
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 quote the same day in most cases.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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.
Materials we work on in Bishopsbourne
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Bishopsbourne, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Bishopsbourne?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bishopsbourne use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
