Wood floor repair at your home in Ancrum
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, we can typically put it right, on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

FAQs for Ancrum
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you cover the whole of the Scottish Borders?
All of the Scottish Borders, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in Ancrum
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
