Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

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 normally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Common questions in Follifoot
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you cover the whole of North Yorkshire?
All of North Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you come to Follifoot?
We do. Technicians travel to Follifoot from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
