For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wrexham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
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.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Wipe up spills quickly
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most clients in Gledrid get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we’re called out for in Gledrid

FAQs for Gledrid
Do you come to Gledrid?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Gledrid from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. A picture lets us check.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
