How we handle wood floor repair in The Murray

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

FAQs for The Murray

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Do you work in The Murray?

We do. Repair technicians travel to The Murray from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the entire of South Lanarkshire?

We work UK-wide, so The Murray is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

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’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the entire floor
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in The Murray, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

See our prices page.

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in The Murray

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

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
