Wood floor repair for Newbottle homes

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Wood floor repair at your home in Newbottle

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 pictures, as it can add time.

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.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Newbottle

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered

Newbottle: your questions answered

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
