DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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 fails, we can still put it right.
Wood floor repair in Newmilns, done in place
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Newmilns as everywhere else we work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Newmilns: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Newmilns?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work in Newmilns?
We do. We send a technician to Newmilns for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Landlord and trade work in Newmilns
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newmilns as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your KA16 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
