Wood floor repair in Dungeness

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, 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 remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

About our wood floor repair in Dungeness

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. If you’re dealing with gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can typically put it right, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Our hiring checklist

Dungeness: your questions answered

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Dungeness

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

What affects the price in Dungeness

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
