What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you are in Lesmahagow and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Wood floor repair at your home in Lesmahagow
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. 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.
Lesmahagow questions
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of South Lanarkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Do you need wood floor repair in Lesmahagow?
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chipped board edges
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Scratches from furniture and pets
Before booking anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What aftercare is recommended
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
