How we handle wood floor repair in Aberdour
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We regularly repair engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Aberdour
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Common questions in Aberdour
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Which areas do you work in?

What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
