Leaking suits normally require a pressure test first to identify the source of the leak. After pressure testing suits are left to dry then the leak is repaired on our high pressure heat taping machine. We offer a drysuit repair service in our Glasgow store for surface drysuits only. That 's kayaking drysuits, sailing drysuits, rescue drysuits and other drysuits made with breathable type fabrics. We don't offer a service on heavy diving drysuits with glued on seals and seams.

Many smaller repairers replace a drysuit seal by cutting of the old seal, leaving the last inch of old seal in place, then simply gluing the new seal to the old seal. We take a difference approach and fit your new seal the way it was done in the factory. We firstly completely remove the old seal along with it's taping and stitching. Next we sew the new seal into place on a specialist long arm sewing machine with very a specific type of thread. Then we retape the seal on our high pressure heat taping machine. Most smaller companies cannot replace the seals this way as it takes expensive dedicated equipment to do it like that. Customers are often amazed as they cannot figure out how we 'magically' replaced the seal and it looks like the original.
