How we handle wood floor repair in Withnoe

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, on engineered wood, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Withnoe and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Withnoe

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common questions in Withnoe

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cornwall.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will there be a smell?

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

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your PL15 postcode.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
