  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oldmeldrum as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

All of Aberdeenshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
