Splicing & re-heelingMost common

Cracked bas or worn heel bound and re-glued with ash splices, as strong as the day it was made.

RebandingQuick turnaround

Fresh bands and rivets on a split or splayed bas. Usually ready same day if dropped in before noon.

Helmet repairSafety-checked

Strap, buckle and liner replacement, plus a full shell check. We won't hand back a helmet we wouldn't trust ourselves.

"Sent a photo of a split hurley over WhatsApp on a Sunday night, had it back re-heeled and ready by Thursday. Fair price too."

"Picked up a refurbished hurley for my son off the Vinted shop — looked brand new. Tomás even matched it to his height for free."
