About our wood floor repair in Portessie
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What affects the price in Portessie
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Portessie
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Portessie and the rest of Moray. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Portessie, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
