Trusted wood floor repair in Newington Green

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Newington Green, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Wood floor repair in Newington Green without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you are dealing with chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets, we can generally put it right, on solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us) alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Newington Green

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Newington Green?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 work on in Newington Green

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Signs you need wood floor repair in Newington Green

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a 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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
