Landlord and trade work in Porthcurno
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Porthcurno, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Wood floor repair in Porthcurno without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped board edges and scratches from furniture and pets, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What else we do in Porthcurno
Common questions in Porthcurno
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
