Wood floor repair near Loose

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

If you’re in Loose and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Advice

Wood floor repair in Loose, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We’re frequently asked to fix dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Loose

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Loose use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Choosing a repair company

Loose: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

Everywhere in the UK, Loose included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
