Wood floor repair at your home in Piccotts End
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Piccotts End. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Repair or replace in Piccotts End?
Replacing a 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. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
