Landlords, agents and businesses in Garelochhead
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What affects the price in Garelochhead
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common questions in Garelochhead
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Garelochhead?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
