    The trouble with vacs and small appliances is that after labour they are not viable to repair, unless you are happy doing a job for less than £50 profit.

    Good money if you have a shop and you can get folks to drop in Dualit, Sebo etc.

    Specialist, yes. But also a nice little niche.

    I fixed a Toshiba semi-professional steam ironing press a couple of times for a regular customer. You need at least three hands and infinite patience. Time I’d finished I was ready to throw it at the wall! I wouldn’t ever bother again!
