About our wood floor repair in Kingsteps

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and people most often call us about scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Questions from Kingsteps

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Highland.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kingsteps

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

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

Repairing versus replacing in Kingsteps

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
