How we handle wood floor repair in Brae

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Brae as everywhere else we work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brae use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Brae. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Brae, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Brae: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
