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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Southhouse. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Common problems we fix in Southhouse
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What preparation is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
