Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Wood floor repair in Livingston without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Common call-outs are for dents from dropped items and gouges from moving appliances, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common questions in Livingston
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
