Got a little close to the rocks at Hubbard yesterday in the wind, thought I was clear and hit the one and only lone rock anywhere near my prop. Nothing Bad, dog eared one of the tips, and roughed up the edges on a couple other tabs. Who do you guys use for repair? I live in East Dallas, but can travel if its worth it! Its a Stainless 4 blade Thanks in Advance!

I second Steves prop shop, josh is solid at them props I emailed Josh for a 4 blade prop recommendation and got back a rather rude email. He may know what he is doing, but he needs some work with public relations skills.

I can assure you they will do whatever it takes to satisfy a customer.

B&B in Richland Hills has done some very good work for me. Never had a bad experience there. But Steve's prop shop went over and above for me when I had problems with a Jack plate I bought from them. Literally pulled the motor off and re-mounted the plate as I stood there and talked boats and fishing with him. Very nice guys.

Top notch to me really

I used to send all my props off to Michigan Wheel. Not sure if they still do repairs/custom or not, but they're the best in the game as far as I'mconcerned.

I dropped my prop off last Friday, Josh called yesterday to let me know it's ready. Looks like Fork Saturday and Sunday! First experience with Steves Prop Shop, so far I'm a customer for life based on reviews and current service! Hopefully I won't see him too often!

Picked up my prop up from Steves Custom Props in Quitman. Hats off to Josh for a great job! All around great experience. Great communication, quick turnaround, and awesome work! Prop looks brand new! And his price was much better than I expected! I thought it would be $200-$250, way less! Can't say how much because I am sure the price is based on how bad the prop is damaged and how long it takes to repair. Mine was not that bad. Thanks Steves Custom Props!
