How we handle wood floor repair in Ashiestiel
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Scottish Borders and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Ashiestiel
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
