Do you have an old typewriter in need of some cleaning or fixing? We are here to help get your typewriter(s) working and looking like they used to back in the old days. The job of repairing typewriters has become a "dying art" and there are only a few reliable typewriter repairmen still repairing typewriters for the public. It's about time when you got that old typewriter sitting in the a
ttic back to use without paying a fortune, isn't it? What We Can Fix/Do:
Basic Cleaning/Oiling - All typewriters need some cleaning and oiling work to be in ideal working condition. Plus, it makes the typewriter really shine and sparkle compared to being covered in dust. This cleaning includes light cosmetic cleaning, but the main focus is on cleaning all the moving parts that need attention. Sticky keys - Typebars that don't return as they should after a key is pressed. These can be a real pain when you're typing since it not only ruins the rhythm, but it also makes you reach into the mechanism in order to push the sticky typebar back into place. A Non-Ringing Bell - It's a drag to not hear the satisfying "ding" at the end of the line. Shift Mechanism - While it's not common that the shift mechanism doesn't work, we can repair it. It's more common for the shift mechanism to be less responsive and slow to use, which we can fix as well. Backspace Mechanism - It's not the most important, but a 100% working typewriter is ideal. Carriage String Repair - This one is a biggie. If your typewriter's carriage does not advance after a key is pressed, you most likely have this issue. The carriage string pulls the carriage along as the typewriter is used. Without the carriage string working properly, a typewriter might as well be considered completely inoperable. Additionally, just about every minor mechanism not listed above can be repaired by us.
