Wood floor repair in Lochend without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Common call-outs are for chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Lochend
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Landlord and trade work in Lochend
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
