Repair or replace in Leybourne?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Leybourne questions

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

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

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Most clients in Leybourne get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • One picture of the entire floor
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Leybourne, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Leybourne, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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 generally the cheaper route.

Do you need wood floor repair in Leybourne?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected
