Welcome. This page details what
we are about and what we do. We offer a convenient and friendly service
providing high quality ski repair and maintenance from a qualified
technician.
Why have your skis serviced?
A well prepared ski will run better and turn more easily, making a significant difference to your skiing.
Many skiers never truly appreciate what their skis will do for them. Even brand new skis need some preparation before their full potential is realised. Dulled
edges, uneven or damaged bases and dry unwaxed bases will retard your progress
and limit your enjoyment.
Properly maintained, your skis will last longer. Bases that are dry and unwaxed will become porous and
allow water to penetrate the ski leading potentially to the serious problem of the skis delaminating. Dry bases may also shrink away from
the edges.
You should have skis serviced every few skiing days. You should also have them treated before you put them
away for the summer.
