Wood floor repair in Otham, done in place

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

The type of damage
Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
How much damage there is
Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

Details of any past repairs
A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
One sharp close-up of the damage
The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Otham

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets 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.

Questions from Otham

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Can I fix it myself?

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

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
