About our wood floor repair in Humbie
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and burns.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Questions from Humbie
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Humbie and the rest of East Lothian. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Humbie as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 typically the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Humbie. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
