DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start 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. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One visit for most repairs
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- We leave the room as we found it

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Comely Bank. What changes the price is:

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Comely Bank. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Your questions about wood floor repair in Comely Bank
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
When can you do it?

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
