Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Na h-Eileanan Siar and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to An t-Ob. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HS5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from An t-Ob

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Do you come to An t-Ob?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to An t-Ob for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
