Work for landlords and builders

How we handle wood floor repair in Lynstone
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can typically put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and solid wood alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lynstone and across Cornwall. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

- Whether we combine several jobs

- One picture of the entire floor
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
If you’re in Lynstone and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Lynstone: your questions answered
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
Everywhere in the UK, Lynstone included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair

What else we do in Lynstone
Repairing versus replacing in Lynstone
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
