Where in the "South East?" That covers quite a large area.

Are you talking about Kent? Sussex? Surrey? Essex? Berkshire?

The shops I'd use, which are in the South East are: The Shack , Ski Bartlett

Yeah I gave a board area as I travel around the south east for work and open to travel a little bit if it's to a decent shop. I'd say kent, Sussex, Surrey and maybe Essex, are the areas I was aiming for. Also thanks I'll check them out, anyone ever used a company called "edge & wax"? Got a pretty professional looking website? There Surrey based I believe.

Edge and wax are good, my dad gets all his touring gear from them. As are Rinskis, but they're right on the western edge of sussex so are probably out your range (also about 10 minutes walk from my parents house). I'd avoid S&R etc, they're too inconsistent to trust.

I go to surf and ski in Brighton to get mine serviced. It's not a chain so I've found them to have better customer service and knowledge than places like S&R.

Incase any of y'all are interested, ended up going to edge and wax, they seem to have done a pretty decent job. They also appear to be extremely busy with their servicing, so it took longer than i first was told. I also had to chase them up in regards to this as i didn't hear anything but overall came across as a pretty professional shop and have done a decent job.
