When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

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

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Our hiring checklist

Kentisbury: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Are there extra charges for Kentisbury?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

What affects the price in Kentisbury

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kentisbury. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Kentisbury, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
