Wood floor repair near Eskdalemuir

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Wood floor repair in Eskdalemuir, done in place

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, across laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
