How we handle wood floor repair in Bowmore
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We regularly repair laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairing versus replacing in Bowmore
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What affects the price in Bowmore
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bowmore. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
