Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dunscore. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from Dunscore
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What areas do you cover?
All of Dumfries and Galloway, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
