Trusted wood floor repair in Swanley Village

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Most clients in Swanley Village get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Wood floor repair in Swanley Village without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Swanley Village as everywhere else we work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

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

What we’re called out for in Swanley Village

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

When we’d advise against a repair

  • Underfloor damage

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the entire floor
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Swanley Village

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BR8 postcode.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Swanley Village. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
