Wood floor repair at your home in Sighthill
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Glasgow. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Sighthill
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work in Sighthill?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Sighthill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The process
On the day itself, there’s 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.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
