Wood floor repair in Aith, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and people most frequently call us about chipped board edges and burns.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Repairing versus replacing in Aith
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What affects the price in Aith
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Aith: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
