Frequently Asked Questions
My electric recliner has no power. Can it be fixed?
In most cases, yes. The issue is often related to:
- A faulty transformer or power supply
- Damaged cables
- A failed motor
- Loose wiring
- A faulty handset or switch
Our technicians test each component to identify the exact cause.
How much does a recliner repair usually cost?
The cost depends on the type of fault and the parts required. We provide a clear price estimate before any work begins, no surprises. Most common repairs fall within a reasonable, fixed-range service fee plus parts, if needed.
Can you repair lift chairs used for mobility?
Absolutely. We regularly repair mobility lift chairs and offer:
- Motor and handset replacements
- Safety and stability checks
- Battery back-up replacement
- Performance testing
We understand how essential these chairs are for daily comfort and independence.
What if my recliner is stuck in the open or closed position?
This is a very common issue, usually caused by a motor jam, mechanism obstruction or wiring failure. We can safely release and repair the chair without damaging the structure.
My recliner is making a loud grinding or clicking noise. What does that mean?
This usually indicates:
- A damaged motor
- A failing gear system
- A bent mechanism
- Loose internal components
Turn off the chair and avoid using it until a technician inspects it to prevent further damage.
Can a recliner be repaired if it’s old?
Age doesn’t matter, we repair both new and older models. Even discontinued recliners can often be restored with universal components.
