Need wood floor repair in Fishcross?

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Wood floor repair in Fishcross without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. If you are dealing with chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, we can help, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fishcross as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Fishcross. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your FK10 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
