Sports Equipment Repair & Maintenance

Sports equipment repair services maintain and repair gear including bicycles, skis, snowboards, and other sporting equipment.

With quality sports equipment expensive and maintenance extending life, repair generates revenue of $95,000-$340,000 with 65-80% margins.

The business requires shop space, specialized tools for different sports, parts inventory, technical skills, and seasonal focus.

Services include bicycle tune-ups and repair, ski and snowboard tuning and repair, hockey equipment repair, tennis racket restringing, and equipment sales.

Pricing varies by service.

Success factors include multi-sport repair capability, seasonal timing (bikes spring/summer, skis fall/winter), offering tune-up packages, quick turnaround during peak seasons, and combining repair with equipment sales.

Most shops specialize in 2-3 sports.

Marketing focuses on seasonal timing, local athletes, and sports retailers.

With sports equipment investment high and maintenance needed in 2025, equipment repair offers tune-up opportunities with seasonal focus.
