Drysuit repair course

UK-based drysuit and diving equipment manufacturer Northern Diver have announced a new course covering repairs and alterations to commercial drysuits.

Given the rigours of commercial diving, drysuits require regular maintenance to ensure they continue to work in harmony with the diver. Unfortunately, accidents are inevitable and repairs may be necessary. Thankfully, repairs needn’t signal that the end is nigh for your drysuit. Northern Diver has recently begun to offer a complete repairs and alterations course to their premier commercial clients.

The company’s repairs and alterations department has been an important sector of their business since the beginning. The use of time-tested methods ensures that drysuits can remain in use for years. In fact, Northern Diver reports that often drysuits manufactured decades ago come back to their factory for some attention.

Included in the price of the course is a comprehensive repair and maintenance kit featuring all the essential formers, valves, glues and tapes.
