How we handle wood floor repair in Peel

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, we can typically put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Repairing versus replacing in Peel

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are

See our prices page.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you are in Peel and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Common questions in Peel

Do you work in Peel?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Peel and the rest of the Scottish Borders. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Can pets and children be at home?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Peel. Prices do not change with location.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
