Landlords, agents and businesses in Gatehead
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in East Ayrshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Gatehead
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across East Ayrshire.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can I add another job to the visit?

Do I have to be there?

What affects the price in Gatehead
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your KA2 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Gatehead
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
