Default Rod and reel repair?

Hi,

My basement was in a bad flood over the winter, damaged a ton of my gear. I have roughly 7 rods with a broken guide or two, needs a nice polishing, and a few new grips. I also have a few calcuttas, saltists, and pens that need some
Work done as they aren't working properly. I'd do this all myself if I had the time and experience. The rods are mostly custom, but a few loomis and lamiglass.

I'm curious what turn around time usually is for rod and reel repairs? Few days, weeks, months?

Thanks for the help, happy to give my business to a recommend or sponsour.

Our turn around on reel repairs is 2 - 3 weeks. As for rod repairs, guide replacements usually take about 3 days and tip replacements about 5 minutes. Not sure what you mean about polishing them up.

Thank you Dave, I will drop these off next weekend at your store! What I meant by polish them up is that in the past I had a few rods scuffed up from wear and tear when I got them back they were glossy so I wasn't sure if there was a way to kinda give them a little detail, similar to when you get your car washed and waxed.

Thanks again,
Ben
