Newpound Common: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What else we do in Newpound Common
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newpound Common
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newpound Common use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire floor
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
