When we would advise against a repair

  • Underfloor damage

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Common problems we fix in Aberfoyle

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

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

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged 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. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Aberfoyle. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Aberfoyle
