About our wood floor repair in Caiystane
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and people most often call us about gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Common questions in Caiystane
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Edinburgh.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you work in Caiystane?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Caiystane. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Caiystane. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
