How we handle wood floor repair in Portree

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We work on solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Highland. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Highland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What affects the price in Portree

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Portree

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our prices page.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to compare quotes

FAQs for Portree

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair
