Repair or replace a bath or shower base chip?

Replacing either a bath or shower base can quickly become complicated and expensive. You need to remove the surrounding tiles or shower screen, ideally without damaging them or the underlying waterproofing. You will then need to source a replacement and get it installed. All of which require accredited trades to complete, and put your bathroom out of action. All to remove damage that may have been repairable.

Before you pay full price for replacing a bath or shower base, talk to our friendly team about cost-effective repair options.

With repairs, our team of local experts use the best market leading products to quickly fill bath or shower base chips or scratches, and then closely match the colour and surface texture, making them no longer be the first thing you see when you shower everyday.

Our repair solutions have been tried and tested over the last 20 years, so we have confidence that they will stand reasonable wear and tear.

FIX ‘N’ CHIPS offers care instructions to help ensure your repair lasts and a 12-month warranty. There are some exceptions, so please discuss with your local repair expert to make sure this applies to your repair.

So not only do you avoid the hassle and expense of having multiple trades, such as plumbers, tilers or shower screen technicians, come into your house to replace a chipped or scratched bath or shower base, but we can also be there quickly and much cheaper so you can go back to enjoying your bathroom the way you like it.

Commonly asked questions

Find answers to FAQs for bath and shower basin chip and scratch repairs:

What types of bath or shower base damage do you repair?

We repair many common causes of bath or shower base damage such as chips from dropped objects, scratches from something impacting the surface, accidental dents, and some cracks. To find out more, get in touch and share a photo for a free review and quote. Please note that not all damage to baths or shower bases is repairable, but we’ll let you know once you send through a photo so as to not waste your time.

What are the benefits of using FIX ‘N’ CHIPS for bath or shower base repairs?

Fast and reliable services with significant savings and amazing results – Our service eliminates the need for builders or residential clients paying full price on removing and installing a new bath or shower base, plus the risk of impacting the surrounding bathroom during removal.

What bathroom bath or shower base damage can’t you fix?

If you have a large crack or hairline cracks in your shower base, or a large hole in your bath, which impacts the structural integrity, unfortunately these may need more than a chip or scratch repair to resolve. If we think something can’t be repaired, we’ll be upfront and honest with you. So if we think it’s something we can’t do, we’ll let you know and ideally point you to someone that can help.

To see if your bath or shower base can be repaired, please get in touch and share through a photo of the damage. We’ll then let you know if it’s something we can help with, or if not, who may be able to assist.

How long does a bathroom bath or shower base repair take?

There are a few variables that can impact how long a bath or shower base repair can take. The key ones are the size of the chip/scratch, the colour and texture of the surface we need to match, and the number of chips/scratches needed repairing.

To get a free quote, please get in touch with us with the address of the job and a photo of the damage. We can use this to provide an estimate to save you the cost and time of a site visit.

That being said, it commonly takes about 1 to 2 hours to repair a chip in a bath or shower base.

How long does a bath or shower base repair last?

Each repair is unique, so it does depend on the original level of damage and the impact on the underlying bath or shower base structure. We do follow a proven process with products that have been tried and tested over the past 20 years. The FIX ‘N’ CHIPS repair process is designed to make highly visible damage, no longer the first thing you see.

The length of time a bath or shower base repair lasts depends on a range of factors. The most common ones are: the level of damage, the amount of traffic/weight the repair needs to hold and the ongoing care and maintenance. If for example, the initial damage to a shower base has caused cracks in the structure itself, impacting the structural integrity, a long lasting repair is going to be challenging.

The repair solutions we use are designed to last a reasonable amount of time with good care and maintenance. A key part of this is ensuring you don’t clean the repaired area with bleaches or aggressive cleaners which can impact the quality of the repair finish.

FIX ‘N’ CHIPS offers care instructions to help ensure your repair lasts and a 12-month warranty. There are some exceptions, so please discuss with your local franchisee chip repair expert to make sure this applies to your repair.

A big thank you to Gus for the amazing repair job to a chipped kitchen Caesarstone benchtop.I was absolutely amazed at the repair and colour matching to the point you would never know there was any damage done. For prompt professional service and attention to detail, I highly recommend Gus

Highly recommend Fix N Chips for repairing chipped tiles. Gus (from Hobart) has done an exceptional repair job. The color & texture matching is so good that if you didn’t know where the tile chips were you wouldn’t be able to pick them. Gus was prompt arriving, polite & friendly with a very professional attitude toward undertaking his services. A+ job, very happy :-)

It didn't take long at all and he was honest with pricing. Would definitely reccomend Craig. Thank you so much!

I was genuinely astounded by the quality of Alan's workmanship. I had about 8 or so chips along the edges of my kitchen benchtop. He didn't just fix them, he disappeared them entirely! I still can't believe it. I keep looking at the bench trying to figure out where the chips used to be! Couldn't be happier. Thanks Alan.

Donna Larsen

1719263420

I wasn't expecting much given my surface was textured bamboo laminate and impossible to match - or so I thought. Alan did an AMAZING job - without a close inspection it is nearly impossible to see the original damage. All done within 2 hours and a brilliant job topped off by service with a smile. I cannot recommend Alan highly enough if you have a damaged surface!

I have to say Fix 'n Chips are magicians. They were engaged by my insurer to fix a corner of the bath that had cracked off due to a smart speaker falling off a shelf onto it. I was a bit sceptical that it could be fixed, but sure enough, the technician rebuilt the corner of the bath and covered it with perfectly colour-matched resin. It is literally an invisible repair. I would 100% recommend them.

Highly recommend Gus for the repair of laminate benchtops. A lodger of mine left a hot pot on the bench top one night which heated it up and caused bubbling. Gus was able to come in, sand away the bubble, fill it and colour match it exactly. I can barely tell that it is a patch job! Can you?

I accidentally took a chunk out of a tile in a high traffic area of my home, and was facing the prospect of finding a tiler 2 weeks out from Christmas to replace a tile. Found Fix N Chips on Google and contacted them. Matt from Fix N Chips Brisbane contacted me promptly and within an hour had quoted me and scheduled a time to come out the next day to repair the tile. Matt was on time and meticulous in his attention to detail. He was able to match the colour, pattern and sheen of the tile and once the job was done, it was impossible to spot where the repair was made. I would have no hesitation in recommending Matt and Fix N Chips.

I had such a positive experience with Fix n Chips. I had my doubts when a kitchen/bathroom repair van pulled up outside my house. My Piano had been badly chipped during insurance repairs to my house. The repair took such a long time as they patiently tried to match the colour. You can not even see where the damage was now and I am very impressed with the work. Thankyou!!

I recently had the pleasure of engaging with Richard, the franchisee of FIX ‘N’ CHIPS Casey, and I cannot speak highly enough of the exceptional service he provided. As someone dealing with a severe case of OCD, I was understandably anxious about some minor scratches on my stainless steel kitchen appliances.What stood out most about Richard was his genuine empathy and understanding towards my condition. Instead of capitalizing on my mental health issues, he went above and beyond to put my mind at ease. Richard took the time to personally inspect the problem, and rather than exploiting the situation, he reassured me that the scratches were completely normal and unavoidable.I greatly appreciated Richard’s honesty and integrity. He could have easily taken advantage of my OCD and offered unnecessary services or charged me for the visit. However, his ethical approach and compassionate attitude demonstrated his commitment to providing exceptional customer service.Not only did Richard refrain from charging me for the visit, but he also took the initiative to provide me with valuable information about the nature of the scratches. His knowledge and expertise in the field were evident, and he willingly shared his insights to educate and reassure me.Thanks to Richard’s professionalism and kindness, I now have peace of mind regarding the scratches on my appliances. I am immensely grateful for his genuine empathy, which made a significant difference in my overall experience. Richard exemplifies the qualities of an outstanding service provider who puts customer satisfaction and well-being above all else.I wholeheartedly recommend Richard and FIX ‘N’ CHIPS Casey to anyone seeking exceptional service, honesty, and genuine care. Richard’s exemplary actions have earned my utmost respect, and I am grateful to have crossed paths with such an exceptional individual.

From my initial email enquiry (Thank you Amy) to the finished chip repair (Thank you Serge), Fix'n'Chips has been a responsive and professional team to work with, and I could not recommend them highly enough. I can't even see where the chip was and it was a fairly large one in the Kitchen stone bench. Absolutely amazed and delighted with the result.

I made a terrible mistake that I glued the broken piece back in that made the job twice harder. Sirg was persistent and so patient! He had done a fantastic job.I hope I won’t have to call him back but certainly he’s in my contact list - just in case, and to refer to others. Thank you again.

Looking for someone that doesn't cut the corner on quality? Go for Fix'n'Chips! Janek came this 8 Dec 21 to fix a chip on a porcelain-made kitchen benchtop in Southbank and did an incredible job.He installed some protection around to avoid messing up my kitchen and took the required time to find the perfect color match and get an ideal filling texture. Two hours later, many would have considered the job done and left, but he stayed longer and kept adjusting the fix till the solution was perfect.No rush, no cutting on the corner to maximize their short-term profits; these guys have a reputation to keep, and they know what quality means!
