About our wood floor repair in Maidstone
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s burns and chipped board edges, we can normally put it right, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.
Your questions about wood floor repair in Maidstone
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Maidstone use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
