Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Newnham

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

FAQs for Newnham

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you work in Newnham?

We do. Technicians travel to Newnham from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Most clients in Newnham get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

What affects the price in Newnham

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
