Surfboard repair FAQ

How much does surfboard ding repair cost?

Small dings up to an inch run $40 to $60 on polyester (PU) boards and $50 to $70 on epoxy, with a $50 shop minimum on everything except a single very small ding. Medium dings are $70 to $140 and large dings $115 to $250 depending on construction. The full list is on the pricing page.

How long does a repair take?

Small repairs are usually done in 2 to 4 business days. Major work such as delamination, structural repairs and rebuilds takes 1 to 3 weeks. Rush service is available for $30 to $75 when the schedule allows.

Where are you located?

Resin & Rail is based in Menifee, California, in the Inland Empire. Drop-off and pickup are by appointment. There is also a weekly pickup and drop-off run along the coast.

Do you repair epoxy boards and SUPs?

Yes. PU and EPS/epoxy surfboards, longboards, soft-top fin and plug issues, and stand-up paddleboards, including delaminated decks.

Can I still surf a board with a ding?

Not if the ding is open. If you can see foam or cloth, or catch a fingernail in the crack, water is getting in. Keep it dry until it is fixed. A wet board is heavier, weaker and costs more to repair.

Will the repair match my board's color?

Repairs are structural and watertight first. Color matching is available for an extra $20 to $50 when possible, but an exact match cannot be guaranteed, especially on tinted, sprayed or sun-yellowed boards.

How do I get a quote?

Text a couple of photos of the damage to 951-356-6770. You get a price range and turnaround time back at no charge.

Do you offer mobile ding repair?

Not yet. Mobile ding repair is coming soon. Right now Inland Empire customers drop off in Menifee by appointment, and coast customers between San Diego and Los Angeles can use the weekly pickup and drop-off run.

How do I pay?

Cash, Venmo or Zelle, on or before pickup. Credit and debit cards are accepted through an emailed invoice.

Is Resin & Rail part of One Revolver Surfboards?

Yes. One Revolver Surfboards shapes custom boards, and Resin & Rail is the same shop's name for ding repair, restoration and repurposing of boards.
