Wood floor repair in Inver without replacing anything

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

What affects the price in Inver

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Inver. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Inver get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

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. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
