Wood floor repair in Escomb, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s burns and dents from dropped items, we can typically put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

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. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What affects the price in Escomb
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Escomb. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Escomb. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Escomb questions
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Do you cover Escomb?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Escomb and the rest of County Durham. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
