Wood floor repair in Harray, done in place
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring, and the jobs we see most are burns and scratches from furniture and pets.
Rural addresses like Harray just need a little planning, and we will plan the visit around it.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result. In a village or hamlet like Harray, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space clear if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Should you replace it?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Older homes around Harray may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. A repair keeps the original.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Harray: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing old floors in a period home in Harray?
Generally, yes. Older floors are often worth repairing rather than replacing. Send us pictures and we will tell you what’s possible.
Will you travel to Harray?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you come to Harray?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Harray for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Harray and the rest of the Orkney Islands. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed, with no obligation. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Harray
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
