About our wood floor repair in Broxburn

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

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. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Broxburn. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

When to call us in Broxburn

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Broxburn questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EH42 postcode.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
