Wood floor repair in Carlyon Bay, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges from moving appliances and burns.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carlyon Bay as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in Carlyon Bay

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Carlyon Bay. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the entire floor
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Carlyon Bay, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Questions from Carlyon Bay

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

When can you do it?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
