Wood floor repair in Ashkirk without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Ashkirk
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Ashkirk?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you cover the entire of the Scottish Borders?
All of the Scottish Borders, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace in Ashkirk?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
