Wood floor repair for Wigtown homes

Wood floor repair at your home in Wigtown

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are dents from dropped items and burns.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wigtown

If you manage property in Wigtown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Wigtown

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Wigtown. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our prices page.

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
