Wood floor repair for Kimpton homes

Common questions in Kimpton

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you cover Kimpton?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Kimpton and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Hertfordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Wood floor repair in Kimpton, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, across laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Repairing versus replacing in Kimpton

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. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Kimpton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can price the job.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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