Wood floor repair for Murston homes

Landlord and trade work in Murston

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

How we handle wood floor repair in Murston

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and burns, in engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Murston: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Do the materials smell?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
