When you are working to a deadline or a schedule on a project, either large or small, a breakdown in your tools is never a positive point in the project. Having a company that you trust that can complete your tool repair and allow you to get your work done is a big consideration.
It is always a good idea to look around at the different companies that offer tool repair before you actually have a problem on the job or in the shop. With a company already checked out and researched you can simply make a call and get your project back on schedule without the need to actually do the research when time is short.
Experience
Obviously experience is important in any type of repair, but it is very important when you are talking about tool repair. These tools, while simple to use, can be very complicated and even the smallest issue can cause the tool to fail to function.
Without experience in all aspects of tool repair you may find that repairs are slow, may not be effective, and may actually lead to a decreased life of the tool after the repair has been completed.
Inventory and Brands
You want to choose a company for your tool repair that has an exceptional inventory of parts. This includes parts for a range of different brands, especially the most popular pneumatic tool brands and the brands that your business uses.
With a significant parts inventory repairs are quick without the downtime of waiting for a part to ship and arrive.
Scheduling and Rental Options
You will also want to ask about the timing of tool repair and how quickly you can expect the tool to be back to top working condition. For many shops this will be only a day and you will have your tool back in full working condition, tested and fully serviced.
You may also want to consider a company that offers tool repair as well as tool rentals.
