How we handle wood floor repair in New Lanark

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can normally put it right.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in New Lanark?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlord and trade work in New Lanark

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for New Lanark. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Just around the damaged area.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
