Wood floor repair at your home in Newbie
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. If you’re dealing with gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, we can help, on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
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.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
