About our wood floor repair in Tilmanstone

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We’re often asked to fix burns and dents from dropped items, across laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we are called out for in Tilmanstone

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

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Burns

Repairing versus replacing in Tilmanstone

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
