Need wood floor repair in Port Isaac?

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

How we handle wood floor repair in Port Isaac

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are dents from dropped items and chipped board edges.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Questions from Port Isaac

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
