FAQs for Colt's Hill

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Do you work in Colt's Hill?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Colt's Hill. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Wood floor repair at your home in Colt's Hill

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and burns.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Colt's Hill and across Kent. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, 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 will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Colt's Hill

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

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace in Colt's Hill?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour-matched on site

Landlord and trade work in Colt's Hill

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
