How we handle wood floor repair in Chartham

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Typical jobs include dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, in engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Chartham. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Chartham, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

What we are called out for in Chartham

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Chartham questions

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
