Wood floor repair in Newtown

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring

Wood floor repair in Newtown without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. We’re frequently asked to fix burns and gouges from moving appliances, across solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Common questions in Newtown

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you work in Newtown?

We do. We send a technician to Newtown for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Newtown?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

We price from pictures so you do not 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.

When to call us in Newtown

Chair legs, 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 are:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
