Wetsuit and Drysuit Repairs, Price Guide.

All suits can be made to be different in many ways. Where we are asked to undertake a repair we will always do our utmost to put the suit back to the same condition as the original manufacturer (or better).

Our repair experience goes back to the early 1980’s when the first variable volume dry suits were a real novelty in the sport diver market and we have seen many innovations and developments, all of which we have had to repair or put right.

Our motto is ‘We can change anything including the colour’.

Prices for repairs to drysuits and wetsuits assume that the suit is in original manufacturer condition and has not been modified so as to make repairs difficult in any way. We will always contact customers where the cost of a repair is going to be significantly greater than we have previously stated or where we feel that the suit is not worth the repair cost. We are happy to inspect suits and give a clear costing of the work that is required or the complications that may be involved.

We are a small company so when you ring us you will always be able to speak to someone who makes their living from ‘hands on’ suit repair and not a manager who merely watches without understanding.

If you do not see a price for the job you require this is because we cannot possibly list everything and because some jobs by definition are difficult until you see them. (e.g. Mouse holes – Yes they do eat wet and dry suits we think it is salt or fish oil).

Wet stuff

Wet zips (fitted) Wrist or ankle from £20.00 (pr)
Main zip - jacket, long john or centre back from £30.00
Semi dry seals Wrist or ankle from £30.00
Knee pads (fitted) Heat bonded Melco – very flexible £18.50
Bum repair/replace from £25.00


Wetsuits are more simple than drysuits and as a result tend to go wrong less often, this means that the standard list of jobs is much shorter but the non standard list tends to be more specialised. When dry suits break it is always the same things at the same price, wetsuits tend to be more demanding but not more costly. Please give us a call we can usually give a good indication over the phone provided you can describe the suit and damage – (some people don’t even know what colour suit they dive in).

We can repair seams, patch holes, make them wider, longer, slimmer, and shorter, add bits or take some away. If your divorcee partner takes a Stanley knife to your pride and joy (wet or dry suit) we can stick it back together in a professional manner; yes we have done this repair more than once!

Give us a ring 0161 304 8471
 

We do not offer credit terms on repairs, all items must be paid for prior to despatch.
