Unfortunately there are items we cannot repair:

  • Microwaves
  • Televisions
  • Electric Blankets
  • Printers
  • Sewing machines, unless very basic cleaning (not a service or resetting of functions)
  • Watches (we may consider repairs to some straps).
  • Tools for sharpening (Ilminster Home Hardware provides this service).
  • Items that have a faulty lithium battery (it’s too costly to check they work unless we already have a battery).
  • Dangerous things, such as chainsaws and brush cutters.
  • Dirty things – that will need cleaning, descaling, etc, before they can be repaired.
  • Petrol-powered items.
  • Items that will not easily fit in the back of an average car.
  • Zips on heavy or thick fabrics.
