How we handle wood floor repair in Cathkin
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are often asked to fix chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
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 will reply with a fixed quote.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Common questions in Cathkin
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Signs you need wood floor repair in Cathkin
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
Comparing quotes
- Who will actually do the work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a 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. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Same prices wherever you are
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
