What We Repair
Electric Recliners
Electric recliners rely on motors, power supplies and control systems to operate smoothly. When one of these components fails, the chair may stop moving or become stuck in position. Our technicians regularly repair:
- Faulty or failed recliner motors (single or twin motor systems)
- Recliners stuck open or closed
- Power supply, transformer and cable issues
- Faulty switches, buttons or handset remotes
- Loss of power or intermittent operation
- Grinding, clicking or jerking movements during operation
In many cases the problem can be fixed quickly once the correct component is identified.
Lift Chairs
Lift chairs provide important mobility assistance for many people. When they stop functioning properly, safety and independence can be affected. Our recliner repair Preston service can help with:
- Lift chair not rising or lowering correctly
- Remote control or control box faults
- Backup battery replacement
- Slow or uneven lifting motion
- Motor or actuator faults
We always aim to restore the chair safely so it continues to provide the support it was designed for.
Manual Recliners
Manual recliners use mechanical cables, handles and spring systems that can wear over time. Common manual recliner repairs include:
- Broken or stretched release cables
- Damaged handles or trigger mechanisms
- Internal springs and metal frame components
- Recliners leaning unevenly

Many manual recliner problems can be repaired without replacing the entire chair.
Sofa-Bed Mechanism Repairs
Many recliner sofas include sofa-bed mechanisms that can become damaged through regular use. We repair:
- Folding bed frames

In many situations the mechanism can be repaired instead of replaced.
