Colour Matching & Pigment Fill

Pigment fill is recommended for coloured board repairs. We add resin‑tint or pigment to match the original colour as closely as possible. Clear boards can also be matched, though ageing and yellowing can make this more difficult. Fluoro colours may take longer to match.

Surfboard Fin Box Repairs & Upgrades

We repair all fin systems — FCS, FCS II, Futures, single fin boxes, glass‑ins and more. We can also replace or upgrade old plugs if fins are no longer available.

Gloss & Polish Finishes

We offer gloss and polish finishes when requested. Final finish depends on the surface of your board.

Surfboard Pin Line Repairs

We restore damaged pin lines caused by rail dings. Pin lines are delicate and can reduce board value if damaged — we’ve been repairing them for decades.

Surfboard Restorations

Got an old board with sentimental value? We restore classic boards to their former glory.

PU & Epoxy Resin Surfboard Repairs

We repair all PU and epoxy boards, including composite constructions such as Tuflite with carbon rails or inlays. We work extensively with Firewire, Thunderbolt, Tuflite (Surftech) and Futureflex. Note: A $30 surcharge applies to epoxy surfcraft due to material cost and additional labour time.
