Covering Haster
Haster is about 17 miles south-east of Thurso, in Highland. Our technicians come to homes and businesses in Haster, so you don’t need to take anything anywhere. Haster is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland where we work.
Jobs in KW1 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. We regularly work on streets such as Fountain Square and Tannach Road and the roads around them. Nearby, we also work in Reiss (2 miles north), Wick (3 miles east), Whiterow (3 miles south-east), Ackergillshore (3 miles north-east) and Staxigoe (4 miles east). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so it’s best to call first.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Haster. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Haster, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Questions from Haster
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Haster?
We do. Technicians travel to Haster from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover the whole of Highland?
All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
