How we handle wood floor repair in Alves

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Our repair technicians work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and people most frequently call us about dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Moray. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Alves clients choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Work done at your home or business
