About our wood floor repair in Murrayfield
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We’re frequently asked to fix burns and scratches from furniture and pets, in solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Murrayfield. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
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.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
