Wood floor repair for Gourock homes

About our wood floor repair in Gourock

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We regularly repair solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are burns and gouges from moving appliances.

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.

FAQs for Gourock

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Gourock

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most customers in Gourock get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When to call us in Gourock

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

Clients normally contact us about:

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

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Gourock

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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 usually the cheaper route.
