How we handle wood floor repair in Little Scotland

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We are often asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, across engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Little Scotland questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in Little Scotland, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
