The repair list
Small repairs.
Careful hands.
These are starting prices for one toy. We inspect it, explain the work and wait for your approval of the written estimate before beginning.
What’s on the bench
Doll restringing
Replace worn elastic in a doll with strung joints. We check the joint structure and explain any replacement parts first.
From $48
Doll surface cleaning
Gentle cleaning of accessible surfaces after a small material check. Hair restyling and fabric replacement are separate estimates.
From $30
Wooden toy glue repair
Rejoin one clean break or refit a loose wheel. Bring all the pieces you have in a separate bag.
From $26
Wooden toy repainting
Prepare and repaint one small worn area. We agree on the color and explain where a new finish may look different.
From $44
Multiple repairs and replacement materials appear together in one estimate. We ask before changing the agreed scope.
Drop off, decide, collect.
-
Start with the problem
Describe the toy and the part that needs help. We reply to agree on a drop-off time, Tuesday–Saturday, 10am–5pm, at 26 Button Street.
-
Read the estimate
After drop-off, allow 2–3 business days for inspection. We explain the proposed repair, total price and likely finish date. Work starts after approval.
-
Give it a little time
Most approved repairs take 2–3 weeks. Parts or delicate materials may take longer; we tell you before starting. We contact you when it is ready to collect.
Before the holidays · 2026
November 28 is the drop-off cutoff.
Approve the estimate by December 1 for eligible work to be ready for pickup by December 19. We confirm the date after inspecting the toy; the cutoff is not a promise that every repair will fit.
Later arrivals are scheduled for January. The shop is closed December 24, 2026–January 4, 2027.
A few things to know
Will the repair be invisible?
Not always. New thread, fabric or paint may differ from the original. We explain visible changes in the estimate and keep familiar details wherever practical.
What should I bring at drop-off?
Bring the toy and any loose pieces in a bag, with a note about what happened. Leave unrelated accessories at home. Tell us if the toy has been glued, painted or washed before.
Do you repair electronic toys?
We do not repair electronic parts, battery compartments or ride-on toys. If the work is outside our scope, we say so before an estimate is approved.
