Power tool repair in South Africa: quotes and what they depend on

On this page: prices · who offers it · how to get prices

Power tool repair in South Africa is priced per job, once the repairer has seen the tool and the fault, and we do not yet hold a verified price range for it. The quickest way to a current quote is to describe the tool, its model and the fault on BlaBlaPrice, where local repairers reply with their own price.

What the price depends on

  • the tool type and its model, for example a drill, a circular saw or an angle grinder
  • the fault itself, such as a switch, brushes, a battery or the motor
  • whether parts are needed, and whether they are the original brand parts
  • the age of the tool and whether any warranty still applies
  • how soon you need the tool back, and the city where it is
  • your budget compared with the cost of a replacement tool

Rules and VAT on quotes

Some South African price lists are quoted excluding VAT. A one-day hand and power tool course, for example, is listed at R 950 excluding VAT, so check whether a repair quote includes VAT before you compare two repairers. Some repair specialists advertise repairs, diagnostics and parts for Bosch, Makita and DeWalt, which is useful to know if your tool is one of these brands. Ask for the total in rand in writing before you agree to any work.

Season and timing

Summer runs from December to February and winter from June to August, so November falls between the two seasons. If you need the tool before summer starts, book the repair now and ask how long it will take once the parts are in.

What to put in the request

Name the brand and model, describe the fault in plain words, and say how old the tool is. Give the city you are in (Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria or Gqeberha) and whether you can bring the tool to the repairer or need it collected. Mention your deadline and your budget, so repairers can answer with a price and a time.

On BlaBlaPrice you describe the tool in your own words in a chat, and you can add a photo of the model plate. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own offer: price, terms and when they can do the repair. Your contact details stay hidden until you choose a repairer to exchange them with, and you can also send your request link to a repairer you already know. Browse the repair and servicing section or create a request on the home page.

Questions and answers

How much does power tool repair cost in South Africa?

There is no verified price range for it yet, because the price depends on the tool, the fault and the parts. A repairer quotes one price per job after seeing the tool.

Do the prices include VAT?

Not always. Some South African price lists are quoted excluding VAT, so ask whether the quote includes it before you compare.

Can I get a repair for a Bosch, Makita or DeWalt tool?

Some repair specialists advertise repairs, diagnostics and parts for these brands. Name the brand and model in your request so repairers can confirm they can help.

Should I repair or replace a power tool?

Compare the repair quote with the price of a new tool of the same kind. Ask the repairer whether the part you need is available, because that decides how long the repair takes.
