Water damage
repaired and reinstated properly.
Ceilings down, plaster blown, floors lifted, walls stained — after a leak from upstairs, a burst pipe or a failed appliance. We dry, strip, repair and reinstate to the pre-loss condition, with the itemised quote your insurer or the upstairs freeholder needs.
What water damage repair
really costs in London.
Reinstating water damage in London costs between £600 for a stained ceiling repaired and repainted and £25,000+ for a multi-room flood. A typical leak from the flat above — ceiling replaced, walls skimmed, room redecorated — is £1,500–£3,500 + VAT; add flooring replacement and it's £2,500–£7,000.
The cost drivers are how far the water travelled (one ceiling or several rooms), how long it was wet (drying time and mould treatment), the construction (lath-and-plaster ceilings cost more than plasterboard), the flooring affected, and whether electrics were involved. Insurers generally accept our itemised quotes as the basis for a claim.
Tom Harvey Contractors provides site visits within 48 hours and itemised written quotes formatted for insurance claims, with photos and moisture readings, and we work directly with loss adjusters, managing agents and the upstairs leaseholder's insurer where needed.
