Tool repair is a service in which a broad spectrum of parts and components that fall under the heading of ‘tools’ are altered from a damaged or worn condition to as close to their originally-manufactured state as possible. Repair work is a much more cost-effective option than purchasing all-new equipment as well as replacing the damaged or worn components with new ones.

As a wide-ranging category, tools are defined as devices that are used in order to perform or to facilitate either manual or mechanical work. Due to this rather broad definition, tool repair services can include a variety of repair work performed on parts and components ranging from lead screws, valves, pumps and levers to gauges, scales, transducers and pressure sensors. However, tool repair service companies will commonly specialize in one or a few specific kinds of tools rather than being able to repair the whole spectrum since each different type of tool requires a different skill set and knowledge base. As a collective type of company, tool service repair shops are able to repair tools that are crucial to many applications in industries including: construction, for the repair work of power tool used in building applications; industrial manufacturing, in order to repair vital parts and components in assembly, processing and material handling equipment; and automotive, for use in the repair of critical power transmission parts such as gears and clutches.
Repair work is defined as the restoration of a part or component that has experienced damage or has become unusable due to wear. As a result, instead of having to replace the entire machine because one part is not working, tool repair service companies restore the one un-operable part. Although it seems very straightforward, there are a variety of methods that can be used for tool repair. Specifically, machine tool repair often calls for the tools to be cleaned, inspected and then reassembled using either re-fashioned or new parts. While it is not uncommon for tool service repair companies to be able to work on-site, many of these operations do require the repair work to take place at an off-site facility equipped with the proper tools and equipment for the job. In addition to repair work, many tool repair service companies also provide tool rebuilding and retrofitting services. Tool rebuilding services involve the complete restoration of the tool and all of its components to a condition that is either equal to its original state or even better. This service typically costs around one-third of the cost for a newly-manufactured tool. Tool retrofitting, conversely, is not done in order to restore the tool to its original status, but for the express purpose of making it better. Tool retrofitting does not require any damaged or worn components, but is simply done in order to upgrade the technology of the tool's construction when the old technology has become out-dated.
