Ask in your local tackle shop they usually have someone for repairs , I did rod repairs for 7 shops in west lancs/merseyside, I would do it for you if i had,nt moved 250 miles up the road.

Dont think he does rebuilds or repairs, but he will likely know someone nearby that will so definitely worth a try

Cost him more to take/send rods than work needed, what it is exactly you need doing ?

I need to replace the tip eye on my 9ft sonik xtrator and also the first eye on the tip section of my 12ft century fmj, the rings themselves are fine it's actually the inside part of the ring that is missing on the sonik xtractor and is cracked on the fmj .
