Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 photos.
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kilcreggan. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Your questions about wood floor repair in Kilcreggan
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you work in Kilcreggan?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Kilcreggan. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Kilcreggan.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
