Soho and the surrounding area
Soho is about 1 mile east of City of Westminster, in Greater London. From the centre of Soho to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: a fixed price, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Soho is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we work.
We cover every part of W1F, W1T and W1D and the streets around it. Whether you live on Duck Lane, Drury Lane and Bridle Lane or a nearby road, we can come to you. Soho is on the A4 and A301, which makes it straightforward to reach. We also travel to West End (1 mile east), Chinatown (1 mile south), Seven Dials (1 mile east), St Giles (1 mile north-east) and St James's (1 mile south). Further out, we also cover Kensington (3 miles west), Walthamstow (7 miles north-east), Whitechapel (3 miles east), Hampstead (3 miles north-west), Ruislip (13 miles west) and Stockwell (3 miles south).
Local landmarks in Soho
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to LITE Regal International School, London Library and St Anne's Church and the streets around them. Nearby too are Bar Soho (under half a mile north), St Anne's Churchyard (under half a mile south-west), Soho Parish CofE Primary School (within half a mile south-west) and Harris Westminster Sixth Form (0.9 miles south). There’s a railway station in Soho itself: Tottenham Court Road station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Montfichet's Tower (1.3 miles east) and Westminster St James (less than half a mile south-west). Not far away are St. James's Park Lake and Ludgate Hill.
About our wood floor repair in Soho
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Our technicians work on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Soho
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Soho. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
For anyone letting property in or around Soho, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Repairing versus replacing in Soho
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
