When a floor fails, warps, or simply does not perform as it should, the cause is rarely obvious.

Clear, detailed reports you can act on
Every inspection results in a written report that sets out findings plainly, identifies the cause of any issue and outlines the recommended course of action. Reports are structured to be useful whether you are deciding on remedial works, negotiating with a contractor or seeking a second opinion.
Where required, reports can be prepared to a standard suitable for insurance purposes or property transactions, discussed at the point of instruction.
Meet Michael Reiffer
Wood Flooring Specialist and Independent Consultant
I’m an award winning contractor with over 20 years of experience in the wood flooring industry, based just outside Cardiff. My career has taken me across some of the UK’s largest commercial projects, including hospitals, train stations, and universities, where precision, reliability, and craftsmanship are non negotiable. I work closely with architects, builders, insurance companies, and homeowners to ensure every floor achieves the right result, whether that means offering expert advice, resolving disputes, installing a bespoke floor, or restoring an existing one to its former quality. My focus is always the same: delivering work that’s built to last and tailored to the needs of each space.
