How we handle wood floor repair in Newtown

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We’re often asked to fix dents from dropped items and burns, on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Newtown. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Newtown customers choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

FAQs for Newtown

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Newtown. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can price the job without visiting.

Landlord and trade work in Newtown

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
