Wood floor repair near New Kyo

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why New Kyo customers choose us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

New Kyo questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across County Durham.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Do you work in New Kyo?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to New Kyo. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in New Kyo, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
