About our wood floor repair in Newtown
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Our technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Newtown. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire floor
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Newtown, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
