Wood floor repair at your home in Cruden Bay

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cruden Bay

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Cruden Bay questions

How much does wood floor repair cost in Cruden Bay?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

What areas do you cover?

All of Aberdeenshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your AB42 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cruden Bay. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cruden Bay. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What a repair can’t fix

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage
