Sail Repair & Maintenance

Give Your Sails a Second Life
At sea, sails are exposed to strong winds, salty spray, UV rays, repeated chafing...
Over time, they wear out, stretch, or even tear. But that doesn't mean they always need to be replaced.
At Sailhero, we extend the life of your sails through tailored maintenance and durable repairs, all carried out in our workshop in Hyères.
What We Repair
· In our workshop, we handle all types of sail repairs:
· Replacement of damaged seams or torn panels
· Reinforcement repairs
· Repair or replacement of straps, solar protection
· Installation or replacement of battens, batten pockets, straps, zippers
· Addition or modification of reef bands, leech tapes, etc.
· Custom improvement to fit your boat (luff length, bolt rope diameter, reefing connections…)
We repair both traditional polyester sails and high-tech composite sails.

Maintenance & Inspection
To help you get the most out of your sails, we also offer:
· Full off-season inspection
· Rolled sail storage
· Sails’ check before a transatlantic crossing or high-usage season
A sail that’s serviced in the winter is a sail ready to perform in the spring.
Our Expertise
For over 30 years, we’ve worked on sails in all shapes and materials.
Our 400 m² sail loft is equipped with large-scale industrial sewing machines, allowing us to handle both minor repairs and complex rebuilds — always with precision and attention to detail.
Our goal: get you back on the water with a sail that’s safe, strong, and ready to perform.
