Wood floor repair at your home in Wester Hailes
Boards are repaired where they lie, 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 solid wood, laminate flooring and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Wester Hailes and across Edinburgh. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Common questions in Wester Hailes
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Wester Hailes and the rest of Edinburgh. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are there extra charges for Wester Hailes?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Wester Hailes.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area

Can I fix it myself?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire floor
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
