Wood floor repair in Newton

Wood floor repair at your home in Newton

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We regularly repair wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and people most often call us about chipped board edges and burns.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Repair or replace in Newton?

Swapping a damaged 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cardiff and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for 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. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

FAQs for Newton

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover the whole of Cardiff?

All of Cardiff, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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 price, not a guess.
