Wood floor repair for Gyllyngvase homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Wood floor repair in Gyllyngvase, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We’re often asked to fix dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Gyllyngvase questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
