Utah Whitewater Service Department
Utah Whitewater Gear provides high-quality repair services for inflatable boat equipment. Over the past ten years, we have been doing quality work and offering common-sense advice on how to proceed with damaged, worn, and faulty inflatable craft.
We are a certified service center for AIRE/Outcast, NRS, Hyside, Achilles, and Kokatat (gasket repair only).
Raft and Inflatable Repair
We do NOT do estimates over the phone due to the nature of the different fabrics and materials. Pictures can give us a better idea of your needs, but we rely solely on in-person evaluations for cost estimates.
ALL ITEMS BROUGHT IN FOR REPAIRS NEED TO BE CLEAN AND DRY. If we have to clean it it will be at the full shop rate.
Our shop rate is $75 an hour with a one-hour minimum.
We weld PVC and Urethane.

The nature of the service department is broken, worn, and aging rafts. We reserve the right to NOT work on items that we deem un-repairable, un-safe, or otherwise a liability to us. These repairs are not as straightforward and require some deliberation to decide whether it is worth actually repairing. Due to the age, it may be cost-effective and safer to look at buying another raft.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for one year.
