Wood floor repair in Drellingore, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Drellingore
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Drellingore
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we are working on.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you cover Drellingore?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Drellingore. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
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 photos.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What affects the price in Drellingore
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Drellingore. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Drellingore, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
