Two months ago I installed a bath made by a company called Victoria & Albert. They say it's made from a material called 'Quarrycast' which will be their own composition of course. For all the world it's like a thick plastic.
Yesterday, a double glazed unit fell on it (don't ask) and it's made a chip in it about 50mm x 25mm. I have the majority of the chip that fell out but around the edges, it shattered and if I just replaced the chip it would obviously show.
Now, the insurance company are quite willing to replace the bath but the cost of it will be in the region of 2k (bath 1250 plus fitting) and this seems to us to be immoral if we could get it repaired satisfactorily.
I phoned the insurance company (NIG skandia) and they gave me the number of a bath repair firm. Trouble is, the number isn't recognised!
Does anyone know of a company that repairs baths to a high standard? I don't particularly want to attempt it myself even though NIG say that if the repair didn't work, they would stil replace the bath. If it has to be a diy job, can anyone recommend a product that they have experience of?
