Do you provide emergency industrial machine repair services?

Yes. We provide emergency industrial machine repair assistance in Norfolk, VA, and throughout Hampton Roads. If equipment fails outside normal business hours, call 757-622-4752 and leave a message for immediate assistance. Emergency calls are prioritized based on the circumstances and technician availability.

What industries do you serve with your industrial repair service?

We serve commercial, industrial, municipal, government, utility, manufacturing, construction, and marine organizations in Norfolk, VA, and surrounding Hampton Roads communities. Our customers include water-treatment facilities, pump stations, power plants, shipyards, marine contractors, schools, universities, and manufacturing plants.

Can you handle both on-site and in-house industrial equipment repairs?

Yes. Our technicians provide on-site electrical and mechanical field service throughout Norfolk and Hampton Roads, while complex repairs can be completed at our Norfolk machine shop. The right option depends on the equipment’s size, location, failure, testing requirements, and whether it can be safely transported.

How much does industrial equipment repair cost?

The cost depends on the equipment, failure, required parts, repair complexity, and whether the work is completed on-site or in our Norfolk shop. After evaluating the equipment and required work, we provide a detailed, no-obligation quote. Call 757-622-4752 or use our contact form to request an estimate.

How long does an industrial repair take?

Minor industrial repairs, such as bearing replacements or basic fault corrections, can often be completed within one to three business days. Full motor rewinds, generator overhauls, and major pump rehabilitation may require one to two weeks. Actual turnaround depends on equipment size, damage, workload, and parts availability, and we provide a projected timeline after evaluation.

Do you offer a warranty on repairs?

Warranty eligibility and coverage depend on the equipment, repair performed, replacement parts, and applicable manufacturer requirements. Best Repair Company, Inc. is an ABS Certified Warranty Repair Facility; however, the exact coverage period should be confirmed in your written repair quote before work begins.

Do you repair obsolete or hard-to-find equipment?

Yes. Our Norfolk in-house repair facility can reverse-engineer certain obsolete parts and fabricate or restore components that may no longer be readily available. Depending on the equipment, this may include shafts, slip rings, keyways, and iron-core laminations. We first inspect the unit to determine whether repair or component fabrication is technically and economically practical.

What is the difference between on-site field service and in-house shop repair—which do I need?

On-site field service is generally appropriate when equipment cannot be easily transported or the failure must be investigated at your facility or vessel. In-house shop repair is better suited to work requiring specialized machining, rewinding, balancing, fabrication, load testing, or extensive disassembly. Our team can help determine the appropriate service after discussing the failure and equipment location.

Do you offer preventive maintenance plans, or repair only?

This Industries page primarily covers corrective industrial equipment repairs, emergency repairs, in-house shop work, and on-site field service. Best Repair Company also lists preventive maintenance and testing for certain equipment, including rotating equipment and industrial generators. Because availability and scope depend on the equipment and operating requirements, contact our Norfolk team to confirm whether a scheduled preventive maintenance program is available for your application.
