Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What affects the price in Follifoot
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Follifoot: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
