Wood floor repair in Bo'ness, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Bo'ness. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- 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 leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you repair several things at once?
