What we fix

Three things, done properly

If it's carbon, glass or foam and it lives in salt water, it's probably something we can sort.

Foils

Hydrofoils

Cracked and delaminated wings, chipped leading and trailing edges, damaged masts and fuselages. Carbon layup repair, re-profiling, fairing and finish โ€” back to a shape that actually flies right.

  • Wing crack & impact repair
  • Leading / trailing edge rebuilds
  • Mast and fuselage repairs
  • Stripped inserts & thread repair
Foil repairs & pricing
Fins

Fins & fin boxes

Broken tabs, cracked bases, chewed-up boxes and blown-out tuttle heads. We rebuild the fin or the box โ€” whichever gave up first โ€” and get the fit tight again.

  • Snapped tab & base repair
  • Fin box replacement / re-glass
  • Tuttle head rebuilds
  • Loose box re-bedding
Fin repairs
Boards

Boards

Dings, cracks, heel dents, soggy decks and pulled inserts on wing, kite, surf and SUP boards. Dried out properly first, then repaired so water stays outside where it belongs.

  • Ding & crack repair
  • Deck delamination
  • Track, insert & footstrap repair
  • Vent plug replacement
Board repairs
Not sure?

Ask anyway

Half the jobs that come in aren't on this list. If it's watersports kit and it's broken, send a photo โ€” we'll tell you straight whether it's worth fixing or whether you're better off replacing it.

  • Honest "don't bother" answers
  • Photo assessment before you drive over
  • Second opinions on warranty claims
How it works

Photo. Quote. Fixed.

No booking system, no deposit, no surprises on the invoice.

1 ยท Send a photo

WhatsApp or email a couple of clear shots of the damage. We'll tell you if it's fixable and roughly what it'll cost before you go anywhere.

2 ยท Drop it in

Bring it to the workshop in Tamarin. We open it up, confirm the real extent of the damage, and give you a firm price before any work starts.

3 ยท Back on the water

Most repairs take a few days depending on cure times and how wet the core is. We'll message you the moment it's ready.

Send us a photo.

Tell us what happened and where the damage is โ€” that's usually enough for a ballpark price without you leaving the house.

Repair FAQ

The usual questions

What does a repair cost?

It depends entirely on the damage โ€” a chipped trailing edge and a delaminated deck are different jobs. Send a photo and we'll give you a ballpark, then a firm price once we've seen it in person. We won't start work without your go-ahead.

How long will it take?

Usually a few days. Composite work has cure times you can't rush, and a waterlogged board has to dry out properly first โ€” sometimes a week or more. We'd rather tell you that upfront than hand you back a repair that fails.

Is it worth fixing, or should I replace it?

We'll tell you honestly. Some damage costs more to repair properly than the kit is worth, and we'd rather say so than take your money.

Will it be as strong as before?

On most repairs, the fixed area ends up stronger than the original laminate. What we can't promise is invisible โ€” a structural repair done right sometimes shows, and we prioritise strength over cosmetics unless you ask otherwise.

Do you handle warranty claims?

No, but we'll give you an honest assessment and photos you can send to your brand or shop. Sometimes that's what gets a claim moving.

Where are you?

Tamarin, on the west coast. Message us before you drive over so we know you're coming and can look at it while you're there.
