INTODECOR offers clients an in-out property maintenance service division which was created to service the properties of the social housing landlord.
The role is providing a day to day repairs and maintenance service to the tenants; carry out work to void properties and complete upgrades and modernisations to the homes in the Kent and London area.
We carry out all painting and decorating of occupied properties, to void properties and to supported sheltered housing schemes. As well as private homeowners and commercial properties.
INTODECOR has worked on a variety of domestic and industrial projects ranging from re-decorating homes to applying heavy-duty finishes to large structures like internals in blocks of flats.
On a domestic job, we would use paint, varnishes, and wallpaper to decorate rooms. We follow the householder’s instructions about the choice of colour, finishing texture and wallpaper patterns; however, we can offer advice in interior design too.
Here are just a few everyday jobs we carry out:
- measuring surface areas to work out how much paint or wall covering you need
- stripping off old wallpaper or paint
- filling holes and cracks and making sure surfaces are level
- preparing surfaces with primer and undercoat
- mixing paint to the right shade, either by hand or using computerised colour matching equipment
- applying layers of paint and hanging wallpaper
- tidying up every day not just at the finishing of a job
