Wood floor repair near Wadhurst

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Wood floor repair in Wadhurst without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you’re dealing with chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Wadhurst and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

What affects the price in Wadhurst

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Signs you need wood floor repair in Wadhurst

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

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Wadhurst

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common questions in Wadhurst

Do you come to Wadhurst?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Wadhurst from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
