For Those Considering Wetsuit Repairs | It’s Now Easier to Check Delivery Times, Estimated Costs, and Whether to Buy a New One

At wet-repair.com, a specialist wetsuit repair shop, we have updated the information on our website to make it easier for those considering repairs to get the advice they need.

The content we have added and organized this time mainly includes the following items.

・A display that shows the shortest repair turnaround time at a glance
・A decision-making guide for when you’re unsure whether to repair or replace
・Estimated pricing
・Check delivery times
・Repair process
・Before-and-after examples
・Frequently Asked Repair Questions
・Link to Factory-Direct Wetsuits

A wetsuit isn't something you need to replace immediately if it tears.

Depending on the condition, items with small tears, peeling adhesive, water stains, faulty zippers, or wear around the neck, wrists, or ankles may still be usable after repair.

On the other hand, if the fabric has become stiff overall, there is wear and tear in multiple places, or the repair costs would be too high, it may be better to consider replacing the item.

That’s why at wet-repair.com, rather than simply recommending repairs, we help you determine the best way to use your current wetsuit from a craftsman’s perspective.

In particular, we’ve made it easier to use the “Consult via Photos” feature this time.

Can it be repaired? What are the estimated costs and turnaround time? Or is it in such bad shape that I should consider replacing it?

In some cases, you can tell to some extent just by looking at the photos.

When consulting with us, it will be easier for us to verify the details if you have the following photos.

・Close-up of the damaged area
・A full-view photo taken from a slight distance
・Photo of the back
・Close-ups of areas of concern, such as around the zippers, neck, wrists, and ankles
・Notes on how long it has been used and where water tends to get in

We’ve also compiled information not only on repairs but also on wetsuits sold directly from the factory.

We can assess the condition of your wetsuit and advise you on whether it’s worth repairing or if you should replace it with a factory-direct wetsuit.

As the rainy season approaches, just before summer, and right before a surf trip, more and more people are pulling their wetsuits out of storage for the first time in a while and noticing that something’s wrong.

If you realize this right before heading to the beach, the repair might not be ready in time.

If you notice any tears, leaks, peeling adhesive, faulty zippers, or an ill-fitting size, we recommend checking the condition of the item as soon as possible.
