Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Drylaw
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What affects the price in Drylaw
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
If you’re in Drylaw and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repair or replace in Drylaw?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Drylaw
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
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.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What we cannot put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
