Wood floor repair near New Barn

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Wood floor repair at your home in New Barn

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

How to compare quotes

  • What kind of damage it is

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Your questions about wood floor repair in New Barn

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, New Barn included. Travel is included in the price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

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

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

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 whole floor, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Barn

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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