DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our wood floor repair in Buccleuch
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and burns, we can help, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
If you are in Buccleuch and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
