How we handle wood floor repair in Innerleithen
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Innerleithen
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Innerleithen?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Innerleithen questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
