Wood floor repair in Catrine without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, across laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Catrine: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you work in Catrine?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Catrine for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
