Wood floor repair in Ratling, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. If you’re dealing with burns and dents from dropped items, we can typically put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

FAQs for Ratling
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
Across the UK, so Ratling is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

What else we do in Ratling
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ratling. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Everything repaired in place
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Ratling
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
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 price the job.
What a repair can’t fix
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
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
