Repair Where It Makes Sense
We look at the fault, the appliance’s condition and the parts available. A small failed component does not always mean a whole new appliance.
Our Family & Our Story
Fixing dryers out the back. An old ute with a trolley on the roof. Now, a family business looking after homes across greater Sydney. Here’s how Revive got here, and where we’re heading.
It started with fixing dryers in the garage out the back and selling them directly to customers. We would find the fault, repair the dryer and get it ready for its next home.
Those early repairs were the beginning of what would become Revive.
From there came work for other appliance contractors: deliveries, installations and repairs in customers’ homes.
It meant more experience with different appliances and the practical side of the work — getting them through the door, fitting them into the space, finding faults and testing the finished job.
Then came the decision to go out on our own. The work vehicle was the old ute, with the trolley strapped to the roof and appliances in the tray.
We started with what we had, getting to customers and building a business one job at a time.
One client gave us the chance to show what we could do. They were happy with our work and recommended us to someone else. That introduction led to another, and then another.
Over time, those opportunities became repeat work and professional relationships that have lasted for years. A lot of our growth has come from people being happy to pass our name on.
We still value every recommendation. Someone is trusting us to look after a person they know, and we take that seriously.
The business was growing alongside a young family. Moving from the ute into the first van was a big step, with a better setup for the repair and installation work ahead.
Lauren helped with bookings, emails, parts and the day-to-day organisation behind the work. Family support has been part of every stage of Revive.
Our work with Betta Home Living stores is one example. They trust us to collect appliances, deliver them to their customers and look after installation work.
We take care with the appliance and the home, with the appropriate licensed trades arranged where required. The aim is to leave the customer happy with the appliance and the way the job was handled.
Today, we work with a growing network of property managers, appliance retailers, landlords and private customers across greater Sydney. Repeat work and recommendations continue to bring new people to Revive.
More vans have joined the fleet as the work has grown, with support in the office as well as on the road. We want to keep building the team and take on more appliance supply and installation work, alongside the repairs and maintenance that got us here.
We also want to keep the things that matter to us as a family business: fair advice, care in people’s homes and doing work we can stand behind. Explain the options, repair where it makes sense and get approval before going ahead.
What Hasn’t Changed
We treat it that way. If a sensible repair will keep the appliance going, that is where we start. If replacing it is the better choice, we explain why and help with suitable options.
We want people to feel comfortable asking questions. You should understand what has failed, what we recommend and what you are approving.
We look at the fault, the appliance’s condition and the parts available. A small failed component does not always mean a whole new appliance.
Useful photos, straightforward explanations and approval before going beyond an authorised budget.
We are working in somebody’s home. Care with the property, a tidy finish and considerate communication matter.
We back supplied parts and workmanship with clear warranty terms and help with supplier warranty claims when needed.
The Team Behind Each Job
Our office keeps requests, parts, tenant contact and appointments moving. Our service team handles diagnosis, approved work, testing and job photos.
We are an insured business and arrange work requiring an electrical, plumbing, gas or other licensed trade through the appropriate contractor. Insurance certificates and relevant trade documentation are available for contractor onboarding.
