Wood floor repair in Sullom without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
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. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Your questions about wood floor repair in Sullom
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Sullom.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you cover Sullom?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Sullom and the rest of the Shetland Islands. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How much does wood floor repair cost in Sullom?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
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.
Do you need wood floor repair in Sullom?
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
- Burns
Comparing quotes
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the colour is matched
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repairing versus replacing in Sullom
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
