How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Innermessan?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dumfries and Galloway.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
About our wood floor repair in Innermessan
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most frequently call us about chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Innermessan and across Dumfries and Galloway. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

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. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
When to call us in Innermessan
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Burns
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Innermessan
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
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.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Innermessan
- No extra charge for your area
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it
- One-year guarantee on every repair
