Your questions about wood floor repair in Boughton Lees

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.

Do you come to Boughton Lees?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Boughton Lees. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 typically the cheaper route.

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 won’t last.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

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

Materials we work on in Boughton Lees

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

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Boughton Lees, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Boughton Lees

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Boughton Lees as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. 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.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
