Repairing versus replacing in Portlethen
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Portlethen clients choose us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

How we handle wood floor repair in Portlethen
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 be honest about that. We are often asked to fix dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, in wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Portlethen
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Portlethen. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire floor
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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 will reply with a fixed quote.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we are called out for in Portlethen
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Dents from dropped items
