How we handle wood floor repair in Fogwatt

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring, and people most frequently call us about burns and dents from dropped items.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fogwatt as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Honest limits

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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Fogwatt

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover the whole of Moray?

The entire UK, including all of Moray. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover Fogwatt?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Fogwatt from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in Fogwatt

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
