Can Hearing Aids Be Repaired?

Hearing aids can often be easily repaired in-house by our audiologist and, sometimes, they’re even ready to walk away with the same day. If we’re not able to repair them ourselves, we’ll send your hearing aids off to the manufacturer and provide you with a temporary replacement whilst you wait. 

 

Repairing hearing aids is a much more economical choice when compared to buying a new pair and our clients often find that they get a few more years of life out of them once they’re fixed!

Hearing Aid Repair Service FAQs

Who Repairs Hearing Aids?

The repair of a hearing aid should only be performed by an agent that’s been authorised by the manufacturer. This ensures that your hearing aids will still be safe to use and allows them to last as long as possible!

Can the Wire on a Hearing Aid Be Replaced?

Absolutely. The wire on a hearing aid is one of the most common points of damage, and generally needs to be replaced every couple of years. We wouldn’t recommend trying to do this yourself as this could easily make the problem worse. Any authorised agent of your manufacturer should be able to complete this task for you in-house.

​What Is the Average Lifespan of a Hearing Aid?

While hearing aids can last up to 10 years, their average lifespan is closer to 5 years. However, with the correct maintenance, hearing aid reprogramming, and hearing aid repairs, you can significantly extend the potential lifespan.

How Long Does a Hearing Aid Repair Take?

Most repairs can be completed whilst you are in our clinic, meaning that you can test it out and take it away with you on the same day. However, in some cases the hearing aid will need to be sent back to the manufacturer for repair. These will normally take around 2 weeks to fix.

How Do You Know When Your Hearing Aid Is Going Bad?

It can be difficult to know when your hearing aid might need repairs, here’s our top signs that it could be time to bring it to us:

 

  • There is visible damage

  • They won't power on

  • There’s limited or no sound

  • Sound is distorted or giving off feedback

Can Phonak Hearing Aids Be Repaired?

Yes! Phonak hearing aids can be repaired by a manufacturer authorised agent. They will be able to fix most issues, or if they can’t fix it in-house, they are able to send it back to the manufacturer for a full repair.

How to Repair Oticon Hearing Aids

Oticon hearing aid repairs should only ever be completed by an authorised agent assigned by the manufacturers and you should never try to fix them yourself. Doing so could easily make the problem worse or ruin your hearing aids for good. Take them to an authorised agent to get them repaired by a professional and keep them in good working order.
