If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Wood floor repair at your home in Neilston
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and people most often call us about burns and gouges from moving appliances.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Neilston and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Neilston
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
