Buckerell questions

Can you fix floors in a rental near Feniton station?

Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do, and a repair between tenants is normally quicker than replacing.

Can you fix floors at a school or business in Buckerell?

Yes, commercial work is part of what we do. Send photos and details of the building.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover Buckerell?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Buckerell and the rest of Devon. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Buckerell?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Replacement in Buckerell means trades, travel and waste removal, while wood floor repair is one trip.

Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare. Somewhere like Buckerell needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the wood floor repair comes with us in one trip.

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

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Buckerell

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Buckerell use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

When to call us in Buckerell

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Common reasons people in Buckerell contact us are:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items

Landlords with property near Feniton station (about 1.8 miles west) use us between tenancies, so floors are repaired rather than replaced.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
