Trusted wood floor repair in Arbroath

Wood floor repair in Arbroath without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlord and trade work in Arbroath

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Arbroath: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover Arbroath?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Arbroath from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DD11 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
