Advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Your questions about wood floor repair in Newtonmore
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Newtonmore and the rest of Highland. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Landlord and trade work in Newtonmore
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newtonmore use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
