Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Landlord and trade work in Cornhill on Tweed

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cornhill on Tweed. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
