Wood Floor Repair across Edinburgh

Wood floor repair across Edinburgh: what to expect

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring.

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place.

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work

Landlords, agents and businesses in Edinburgh

If you manage property in Edinburgh, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Signs you need wood floor repair

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

What affects the price in Edinburgh

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire floor

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
