Wood floor repair near Strichen

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What we are called out for in Strichen

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Strichen

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

For anyone letting property in or around Strichen, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What affects the price in Strichen

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

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

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Strichen questions

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do you come to Strichen?

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
