Landlords, agents and businesses in Smarden

Letting agents often send us photos 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.

If you manage property in Smarden, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Wood floor repair in Smarden without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you are dealing with dents from dropped items and burns, we can normally put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood alike.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about wood floor repair in Smarden

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Smarden?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Repairing versus replacing in Smarden

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Take a look at our prices page.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.

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.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
