Mundane stuff, but is there a simple way to fix a coat zip that keeps popping apart near the start, or take it somewhere to get it fixed? And is it expensive?

All Google supplies is zip folders for PC's. Cheers

Shop in Meadowhell does repairs, but I don't know how much - there is a phone number on the link

The place is Meadowhall is flipping expensive, they quoted me £27 to replace a zip of a baby coat which only cost £15 in the first place.
I used a spot of clear nail polish until it totally ripped then replaced the zip with velcro.
