Any good technicians left in the NY area?

Recommended Posts

Over many years we had most of our machines serviced at Jado in Long Island City. We also used to use Gregg at Keystone occasionally. 

We tried some other folks in the garment district (City Sewing etc) but were never too impressed with their work. Same with an outfit in New Hampshire. 

Does anyone have a good recommendation for supplier or repair folks in the Northeast? It's getting harder and hard to find good ones it seems.

You can chalk that up to almost any repair work for today.

The greasemonkeys working on cars today go sit down and say "Google . . . why won't my 2013 Toyota lights come on" . . . and either Google or the Toyota website gives them 13 possible reasons . . . with a "More Reasons" below them to click on.

Sadly . . . many other repair and maintenance work has tried to go that way . . . with far less success than the auto industry.  And guys are buying a 150 dollar set of stickers to apply to their cars to advertise what they do . . . with a bag of tools from Harbor Freight . . . a laptop computer . . . a cell phone . . . and an embroidered ball cap.

Adding to the fact that most of the stuff is either totally made to be tossed when it quits working right . . . OR . . . it is component based . . . where you cannot buy just that little spring that broke . . . you have to buy the whole secondary component . . . remove one wire and 3 screws . . . put the new one in and you are ready to go again.

Yeah . . . I was one of the best maintenance men in the business 25 years ago . . . they don't make em like that any more.

May God bless,

Dwight
