We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Dimson as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

How we handle wood floor repair in Lower Dimson

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Common questions in Lower Dimson

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can you do it?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you come to Lower Dimson?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Lower Dimson and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
