Trusted wood floor repair in Rye Harbour

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Wood floor repair at your home in Rye Harbour

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
