Title: Any good bat repairers you'd recommend?
Post by: mally777 on January 13, 2013, 06:10:38 PM

Hi,

I have a Fusion bat with a crack at shoulder going into handle which I have been informed needs to be refurbed and handle replaced.

I would be looking to have new handle, crack repaired, and a full general refurb.

Any good bat repairers/refurbers recommended by yourselves? How much should I look to pay? Would they routinely resticker the bat as I imagine the stickers will get damaged/removed during refurb?

Many thanks.

There are loads of good makers about that could get this done but recommend you go with one that's closest

Doubt many will re-sticker with there brand though

Cheers mate, I've done quite a few and I'd be happy to have a look at yours.

This is one I've done recently.
