Landlords, agents and businesses in Shortlanesend
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Wood floor repair in Shortlanesend without replacing anything
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on laminate flooring, solid wood and engineered wood, and people most often call us about burns and scratches from furniture and pets.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What affects the price in Shortlanesend
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TR4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
