Personal Item Repair Workshop

The Repair Workshop team is back and excited to host its third repair workshop for our campus community!

Do you have overly loved personal items in need of repair? Bring in your clothing, jewelry, and small electronics and other general items and let our fixers try to fix them (for free)! For this workshop, we have fixers dedicated to:

• Small electrical appliances (e.g. hairdryers, kettles, toasters)
• Clothing 
• Jewelry 
• Sewing machines
• Knife sharpening 
• General repairs (e.g. umbrellas, backpacks)

If you are not sure if your item can be repaired, please contact us to double check! 

Even if you don't have any items to repair, we encourage you to stop by and observe, ask questions, and learn valuable fixing skills for the future! 

Our Repair Workshops support the University of Waterloo's commitment to become a zero waste campus by 2035.
