What we repair: 

  • Appliances: toasters, mixers, lamps, etc.
  • Vintage radios (Partnered with Northwest Vintage Radio Society)
  • Sharpening: knives, scissors, pruners, etc. (We cannot sharpen anything with multiple teeth such as a saw blade, hedge trimmers, or chainsaw blades.)
  • Sewing: rips, hemming, mending, zippers, etc.
  • Other: jewelry, home decor, etc.
  • Wheels: bicycles, wheelchairs, walkers, etc.
  • Computer assistance (navigating installation of apps, etc.)

All items must be small enough to be easily carried by one person. 

Guidelines

    • Repair events are always free to attend. Registration is encouraged for a successful repair and to help the event coordinators and volunteers.
    • Each attendee may bring up to two items to each event. If you have two items, submit one registration per item.
    • Guests are expected to stay with their items and be active participants so they can learn the repair process.
    • If you know what part is needed for the repair, please bring it with you to the event.

We do not repair gas-powered items, hazardous items, vehicles, microwaves, holiday string lights or weapons. Find repair businesses in your area at www.portlandrepairfinder.com.
