We can re-grip your board as new,
with the same translucent heavy duty grip as supplied on a new
board. Our grip will also seal and protect your graphics as well as any
other marks on your board, so we advise you bringing your board to us rinsed
from salt water, cleaned and ready to be gripped.
To re-grip a board up to 2.4m will
cost £35
To re-grip a board over 2.4m up to 3.0m will cost £40
To re-grip a board over 3.0m up to 3.5m will cost £45

Express
Board Repairs |
The Blue Chip Express Repair Service means
just that. Once we have the board we can complete the repair within 48 hours
depending on the work involved.
If you require the Express
repair service you must specify this at the outset as we will need to build
this into our schedule and cost appraisal.

|
Board Restorations: |
Restoration work is labour intensive and time
consuming, which ends up as a very expensive exercise. All too often, the
cost of restoration work will far exceed the value of the board. Board
restoration is best undertaken as a DIY project where your labour is given
freely.

products.
Blue Chip Express Repairs does not undertake board restoration, we
specialise in urgent and high specification repair work on boards,
surfboards and sails.

Board and sail storage charges for
repaired equipment left beyond the QRCD (quoted repair completion date) |
Due to the amount of work we are now asked to undertake
by private customers, insurance companies and trade work for other shops,
together with a lack of storage space within our workshop, we cannot accommodate storage of
finished boards and sails in our workshops for more than 10 days after the
QRCD. However we now operate a secure post storage service.
