Repairability depends on the tool, its condition, parts availability and manufacturer support.

Common Power Tool Repairs

Many tools develop problems through regular use, dust exposure, heavy workloads and normal wear and tear. Some faults are straightforward to diagnose, while others require a more detailed inspection.

Here are some of the common issues we can assess and repair.

Carbon Brush Replacement

Carbon brushes are a common wear item in many brushed electric motors. As they wear down, a tool may lose power, run intermittently, produce excessive sparking or stop working altogether.

BCS keeps a wide selection of replacement brushes in stock for supported tools, helping us address this common repair without always needing to order parts.

Bearing Replacement

Bearings allow the moving parts inside a tool to rotate smoothly. Over time, bearings can wear out due to heavy use, dust, vibration and age.

Common warning signs include unusual grinding or whining noises, excessive vibration, a rough-running motor or noticeable movement in rotating components. Replacing worn bearings can restore smooth operation and help prevent further damage.

Faulty Switches and Triggers

Power switches and triggers receive frequent use and can eventually fail. A tool that will not turn on, switches off unexpectedly or has an inconsistent trigger may need its electrical controls inspected and replaced.

Damaged Power Cords and Electrical Faults

Frayed cords, damaged plugs, loose connections and internal electrical faults can make a tool unreliable or unsafe to use. We can assess supported tools to identify the fault and determine the appropriate repair.

Motor Problems and Loss of Power

If your tool struggles under load, runs inconsistently, overheats or stops operating, the issue could involve worn components, electrical faults or motor damage. An inspection can help establish the cause and whether repair is worthwhile.

Chuck, Gearbox and Drive Repairs

Drills, impact tools and saws rely on moving mechanical components that can wear or become damaged. Depending on the tool, repairs may involve chucks, gears, drive mechanisms, blade clamps or other internal parts.

Air Tool Repairs

Pneumatic tools can develop air leaks, worn seals, trigger issues and mechanical faults. We service supported air tools to help restore reliable performance.

General Tool Servicing and Troubleshooting

Not every tool failure has an obvious cause. If your tool is noisy, vibrating excessively, running hot or simply not performing as it should, bring it in for assessment. We can investigate the issue and advise you on the available repair options.

Authorised Power Tool Warranty Service

BCS is an authorised service and warranty centre for three of the industry's leading professional power tool brands:

• Milwaukee

• Makita

• DeWalt

If your eligible tool develops a fault that may be covered by its manufacturer's warranty, our team can help with the warranty service process.

Please bring proof of purchase for all warranty work. Warranty eligibility is determined by the manufacturer's terms and conditions, and not every fault or damaged tool will qualify for warranty coverage.

If your tool is outside its warranty period, we can also assess whether a standard paid repair is an option.
