How we handle wood floor repair in Newtown
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Our repair technicians work on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and people most often call us about burns and dents from dropped items.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newtown. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
