Landlord and trade work in White Cross
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
White Cross: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
