What else we do in Sgalpaigh
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole floor
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you are in Sgalpaigh and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 there are no surprises on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Sgalpaigh, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Do you need wood floor repair in Sgalpaigh?
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Dents from dropped items
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Scratches from furniture and pets
Comparing quotes
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who turns up on the day
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether they match the colour on site
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
