Wood floor repair in Newmarket without replacing anything

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s burns and scratches from furniture and pets, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Repair or replace in Newmarket?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your HS2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
