Wood floor repair in Holyrood, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, we can help, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Holyrood
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Holyrood
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
