REGULATOR SERVICE & REPAIRS
UB Diving provides professional regulator servicing, drysuit repairs, cylinder inspections, Nitrox preparation, technical diving support, and expedition equipment servicing for recreational, technical, commercial, and cold-water divers throughout British Columbia.
Built Around Real-World Cold-Water Diving
At UB Diving, equipment servicing is not treated as a side business. Our service department is built around decades of real Pacific Northwest operational diving experience supporting recreational divers, expedition divers, underwater photographers, technical divers, instructors, commercial divers, and marine operations throughout Vancouver Island and British Columbia.
Our lead service technician, Sean Smyrichinsky, has more than 26 years servicing scuba equipment and is recognized as one of the most experienced regulator technicians on Vancouver Island.
From modern regulators and technical systems to older and vintage equipment many shops will not even look at, UB Diving takes pride in restoring equipment properly and keeping divers safely in the water.
This is equipment servicing by people who actually dive the environments your gear is used in.

Commercial divers, expedition divers, instructors, underwater photographers, and serious cold-water divers rely on UB Diving to keep their equipment warm, dry, reliable, and operational.
We maintain a large inventory of seals, zippers, valves, ring systems, boots, pockets, and drysuit components because when divers need repairs, they usually need them immediately.
