Wood floor repair near Garioch

About our wood floor repair in Garioch

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Typical jobs include scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, in laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What affects the price in Garioch

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Garioch. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your AB51 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we are called out for in Garioch

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Garioch

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Laminate flooring
  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

Landlord and trade work in Garioch

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

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.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything
