Wood floor repair in Drummore, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We are frequently asked to fix dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, in engineered wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

What affects the price in Drummore
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Questions from Drummore
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
