Wood floor repair in Embo without replacing anything
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole floor
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Embo
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you work in Embo?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Embo and the rest of Highland. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
