Repairing versus replacing in Buchlyvie
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. 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. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How we handle wood floor repair in Buchlyvie
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Our repair technicians work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from furniture and pets 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. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

What happens after I send photos?

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How the visit works

- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
