Wood floor repair near Newington

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole floor
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Newington, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Wood floor repair at your home in Newington

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about chipped board edges and dents from dropped items.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Repair or replace in Newington?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Newington questions

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
