Whether it's a complete flat refurbishment before selling, or a flooring and decorating refresh to update the look, Tom Harvey delivers results you can be proud of.

Flooring Installation
Canary Wharf

Looking for flooring installation in Canary Wharf? Tom Harvey fits engineered wood, LVT luxury vinyl, carpet, laminate and ceramic or porcelain tiles across E14 — with full supply and fit packages available so you don't have to source materials yourself.

The most popular flooring choices in Canary Wharf rental flats are LVT (luxury vinyl tile) and engineered hardwood. Both are durable, water-resistant, and look fantastic — perfect for high-footfall apartments where style matters but maintenance needs to be low. LVT is particularly popular with landlords as it's easy to clean, hard to damage, and photographs beautifully for listings.

For homeowners, we also install solid wood and parquet flooring, underfloor heating systems, and high-end carpet throughout. We take care of all preparation work including subfloor levelling, old floor removal and disposal — so you're not left with mess to deal with.

We cover all of Canary Wharf's main residential developments including Landmark Pinnacle, One Park Drive, Cascades, Baltimore Tower, and all of the Isle of Dogs apartment stock.

Flooring — what we supply & fit

  • LVT / luxury vinyl tile (most popular for rentals)
  • Engineered hardwood and parquet
  • Solid wood flooring
  • Laminate — budget-friendly & durable
  • Carpet — bedrooms, living rooms, stairs

Property Refurbishment
Canary Wharf

Need a full property refurbishment in Canary Wharf? Tom Harvey manages end-to-end property renovations across E14 — from single-room upgrades to complete flat transformations covering every trade under one roof.

A full flat refurbishment in Canary Wharf typically covers: full redecoration throughout, new flooring, kitchen replacement or upgrade, bathroom renovation, carpentry and joinery, basic plumbing and electrical, and any plastering or repair work needed. We manage every trade so you have a single point of contact from survey to handover.

We've completed refurbishments across Canary Wharf ranging from £15,000 cosmetic refreshes (new flooring, full redecoration, bathroom update) to £65,000+ complete gut refurbishments — our project at John Spencer Square, N1 is a good example of the standard we deliver at the higher end.

For landlords in E14, a well-executed refurbishment before reletting typically increases rental yield and reduces void periods — making it one of the best investments a landlord can make. For homeowners, a quality refurbishment ahead of sale can add significant value in a market where presentation matters.

FAQ

Questions about painting, flooring
& refurbishment in Canary Wharf

Redecorating a one-bedroom flat in Canary Wharf typically costs between £800 and £1,500 for labour and standard materials. A two-bedroom flat ranges from £1,500 to £2,500 depending on condition, prep work needed, and finish quality. We always provide a fixed lump-sum price upfront — no surprises. For smaller jobs, we charge £85/hr + VAT.
LVT (luxury vinyl tile) is the most popular choice for rental properties in E14. It's water-resistant, extremely durable, looks great in photos, and is easy to clean between tenancies. Engineered hardwood is a popular choice for owner-occupiers who want a more premium finish. We supply and fit both — come to us with your preferred look and budget and we'll recommend the best option.
A typical one-bedroom flat refurbishment covering redecoration, flooring and bathroom takes around 2–3 weeks. A larger two-bedroom flat with kitchen replacement, bathroom renovation, full flooring and redecoration usually takes 4–6 weeks. We agree a clear timeline at quote stage so you know exactly when your property will be ready. We work efficiently to minimise your void period.
Yes — the majority of our Canary Wharf work is in managed apartment buildings. We're familiar with building management requirements, access procedures, and the noise restrictions that apply in many E14 developments. We bring everything we need and leave no mess — important when you're working in a building with shared spaces and other residents.
Yes — and it's often the most efficient approach. We sequence the work properly: plastering and prep first, then painting, then flooring last. This way nothing gets damaged. Because we have both decorators and flooring fitters in-house, we can co-ordinate the work so there's no waiting around between trades.
Yes — kitchen installation and bathroom renovation are a core part of our refurbishment offering. We can supply and fit a new kitchen or bathroom, or fit units and fixtures you've already purchased. We handle all associated tiling, plumbing connections, decoration and flooring as part of the same job. Get in touch with your requirements and we'll put together a full quote.
All quotes clearly show costs both ex-VAT and inc-VAT at 20%. There are no hidden charges. Our minimum call-out for small repair or touch-up jobs is £95 + VAT. For refurbishments, we typically request a deposit before starting work, with the balance due on completion.
The easiest way is to fill in our online quote request form — just describe the work, add photos if you have them, and we'll get back to you within 24 hours.
