Scuba Gear Services, LLC

As scuba divers, we see what very few people ever experience: the calm of the underwater world, the feeling of weightlessness, and the thrill of meeting new dive buddies.

None of that happens without solid training and reliable scuba gear. To get the most out of every dive, your equipment has to be serviced regularly and serviced well.

Scuba Gear Service LLC provides professional scuba regulator service, BC service, dive computer testing, and scuba tank inspections for serious divers.

Owned and operated by SSI Instructor Certifier and NAUI technical diving instructor Rob Hancock, we focus solely on scuba life-support equipment—not classes or retail. We use manufacturer-approved parts, lubricants, cleaning solutions, and methods for every scuba gear service.

Based in Trinity, Texas and serving divers from Houston to Dallas–Fort Worth and across Texas by mail-in service. We focus only on scuba life-support equipment—regulators, BCs, computers, and cylinders—and back every service with digital test results, not just a quick bench check.

What you get with Scuba Gear Service LLC

  • Specialist only, no retail distractions. We don’t teach classes or sell gear. All of our time, tools, and training go into servicing scuba life-support equipment.
  • Advanced testing instead of “it feels fine.” Every regulator goes through ~450 simulated breaths and digital testing on an A.I.R. Flow Test Stand. You get documented performance, not just a technician’s opinion.
  • Digital service history for your gear. We keep a running record of work performed, parts used, and key test numbers so you can track changes over time and support resale value.
  • Fleet-level experience. We apply the same process to individual divers that we use for public safety teams, universities, and institutional fleets.
  • Direct relationship with your technician. Many local dive shops already send service work to specialists like us and add their own markup. Working directly with SGS gives you direct communication, predictable pricing, and faster answers when you have questions about your gear.
  • Regulator Service

    Regulator Service

    Upon arrival, your regulator enters our scuba regulator service process, where it is inspected and tested to establish a baseline before any repairs. After servicing is complete, we perform a post-test and compare those results to the specifications again. We document the post-test results, and you receive a copy of the Repair Report.
