I have cracked the nose of my board today, it fell off my car roof...
Where would you get it repaired on the Central Coast / Newcastle / Sydney?
Thanks!

get some epoxy resin and fiberglass and you can do it yourself, very easy in that spot. Just sand all the paint off in the area that is cracked and a few extra cms around it. Cut 3 or 4 fiberglass patches etc. There would be dozens of youtube videos about fiberglass repairs
There's fibreglass kits at Bunnings also. Guessing there are surfboard repairers in Newie or some good ones in Brookvale if you're in Sydney at all & not keen on DIY.

don't go to bunnings ; their repair kit is most likely polyester resin, you need epoxy resin like powersloshin says.
polyester resin will dissolve your boards styrene core.
Here's a few names from an old post

i had a repair done by rob McCarthy. Not sure if he is still doing it. Did a nice job but took a while as he was really busy with SUP Repairs.
Thanks everyone for all the info! I ended up getting the guys at Sanded Australia in Long Jetty to fix it for me. They did an amazing job, I highly recommend them!
