Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Flintshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Common problems we fix in Bistre

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bistre. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
