Canning Repair Lab

August 20, 2023 @ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm

Free

Come to this Repair lab hosted by the City of Canning and give your items new life.

What can you bring to the Repair Lab?

Skilled volunteers will help with repairs of:

  • clothing
  • textiles
  • bikes
  • furniture
  • general household items.

If you have something you’re unsure about, bring it to the next Lab and our handy repairers will have a look.

For safety reasons no high voltage electrical items will be repaired. Only extra low voltage battery-powered items will be repaired if they are deemed safe to fix by staff on site.

House rules

  1. Please show your appreciation and respect for our Repair Volunteer by staying with them for the duration of your repair. Have a chat and learn a thing or two.
  2. Successful repairs are not guaranteed. Our Repair Volunteer will do their best to help you with their skills, time, and tools for free.
  3. Repair Volunteers are entitled to refuse to repair items which they deem unrepairable.
  4. Only one item is repaired at a time, so if you have multiple items, you’ll need to join the queue again. This ensures everyone gets to be seen at least once by a Repair Volunteer.

We are unable to accommodate dogs at this event, please leave them at home.
