Scratch, dent, chip and burn repairs to wood and laminate floors in Cromdale, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Dents from dropped items
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Wood floor repair at your home in Cromdale
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We’re frequently asked to fix dents from dropped items and burns, across solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Cromdale and across Highland. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

If you manage property in Cromdale, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Repairing versus replacing in Cromdale
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Cromdale. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Questions from Cromdale
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What else we do in Cromdale
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
