About our wood floor repair in Smallburn

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Our repair technicians work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Smallburn. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

Smallburn: your questions answered

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you come to Smallburn?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Smallburn and the rest of East Ayrshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in East Ayrshire 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 need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
