Repair Café House Rules

We want to be up front about what we expect of our guests, and what our guests can expect of our volunteers! The following are our House Rules:

• Work carried out in the Repair Café is performed free of charge on a voluntary basis by the volunteer fixers on hand.
• Repair time will be limited to 25 minutes if other visitors are waiting.
• We ask a limit of 2 (or 3 small) items per household brought for repair.
• Volunteer fixers making repairs offer no guarantee for the repairs carried out with their help and are not liable if objects are not repaired or do not work properly at home.
• Neither the organizers of the Repair Café nor the fixers are liable for any loss that may result from advice or instructions concerning repairs, for the loss of items handed over for repair, for consequential loss or for any other kind of loss resulting from work performed in the Repair Café.
• Visitors offering broken items for repair do so at their own risk.
• No drop offs. Visitors must stay with their items.
• Repair volunteers may refuse to repair certain objects.
• Repair volunteers are not obliged to reassemble disassembled appliances that cannot be repaired.
• Visitors to the Repair Café are solely responsible for the tidy removal of broken objects that could not be repaired. If we can, we will let you know how you might recycle your item.
• Donations are greatly appreciated!
