Repairing versus replacing in Swinton
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Swinton
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Swinton. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire floor
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Your questions about wood floor repair in Swinton

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Is the work guaranteed?

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Landlords, agents and businesses in Swinton
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in the Scottish Borders and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
