Wood floor repair at your home in Kames

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We are frequently asked to fix burns and dents from dropped items, on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

You are 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Kames. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Kames

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Kames?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
