About our wood floor repair in Newton

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. If you are dealing with burns and gouges from moving appliances, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

What we’re called out for in Newton

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage

Repairing versus replacing in Newton

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire floor

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Newton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
