Wood floor repair in Porkellis, 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 tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with chipped board edges and burns, we can help.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Porkellis, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Porkellis questions

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
