How we handle wood floor repair in Lochmaben
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, across laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

FAQs for Lochmaben
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you come to Lochmaben?
We do. We send a technician to Lochmaben for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole floor
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Lochmaben
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
