For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PE8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Southwick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Southwick questions
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
