Your questions about wood floor repair in Yelsted

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your ME9 postcode.

Do you cover Yelsted?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Yelsted and the rest of Kent. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. 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.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Yelsted, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

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

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ME9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
