DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 pictures.

Newton questions

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

What affects the price in Newton

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit
