Wood floor repair near Garve

Wood floor repair at your home in Garve

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We are often asked to fix dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. 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 morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Common questions in Garve

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you cover the whole of Highland?

We cover the whole UK, including Garve and the rest of Highland. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Garve

Letting agents often send us pictures 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.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

What we are called out for in Garve

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

If you are in Garve and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
