May 2026 - Our repair service now includes the manufacture of new sallies & tail ends (1 or 2 max) on a 3-4 week turnaround. e.g. new sally & tail end on your existing top end.
2 - Week Bell Rope Repairs; Avon Ropes Ltd aims to repair any bell rope, as standard sent to us in a 2-week period or the same day whilst you wait (*). There are very few bell ropes we are unable to repair - if you're not sure, please email us a photo. We often exceed this expectation, but allowing ourselves a 2-week window means we have flexibility to move work around, account for any leave of our team to fit your repairs in. It does not serve us well to hang on to your bell ropes for weeks or even months; it’s therefore in our interest to repair the ropes and send them back to you. The repair 2 week repair service doesnt include for making new sallies.
If you rope has broken, we need from 6" of rope above or below the sally to be able to put a machine splice into it. If it's frayed at the top of the sally, that is repairable too, but you may loose a couple of inches of sally in the process. The turnaround will be approximately 2 weeks from receipt on repairs unless requesting our same day service. We would ask you to tape, tie with string or knot any rope that may have broken to prevent it unravelling further in the post. Should you wish to get a rope repaired, please send the rope to us at the below address using our email address (for tracking info) and our mobile phone number; Avon Ropes Ltd Unit 4 Avondale Works Woodland Way Bristol, BS15 1QH Sending us your bell rope Bell Ropes can be put into a box or a bag, but please make sure it's firm and secure.
