Wood floor repair in Heddle without replacing anything
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and burns, we can generally put it right, on solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 will not last.
Heddle questions
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Are there extra charges for Heddle?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across the Orkney Islands.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Heddle included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- One price list for the entire UK
