Need wood floor repair in Sole Street?

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sole Street

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sole Street as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When to call us in Sole Street

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Sole Street, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Sole Street: your questions answered

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Sole Street

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
