Landlord and trade work in Helford Passage
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
Wood floor repair in Helford Passage without replacing anything
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for burns and scratches from furniture and pets, in solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Helford Passage and across Cornwall. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole floor
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
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 typically cheaper.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair is not the answer

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
