Landlord and trade work in Scarwell
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Wood floor repair in Scarwell, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can help, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Scarwell and across the Orkney Islands. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Around Scarwell

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Scarwell
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of the Orkney Islands. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
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. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire floor
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We clean the damaged area.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
