How we handle wood floor repair in Auchinleck
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are burns and scratches from furniture and pets.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Related advice
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire floor
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Auchinleck
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
