1. DIY + parts

Free diagnosis and guides. Order spares when the job is safe at home.

Queensland-wide when you cannot meet us. You pay postage both ways; ship the body only unless we ask for the dock. Paid work includes a 30-day workmanship warranty on paid repairs.

Mobile workshop map

Pin appears only while we broadcast a public stop — otherwise use your emailed meetup window.

Map pin is optional and only while broadcasting. Book via the form — we usually reply by email within a few hours with the suburb window (and exact pin after we accept).

Mobile workshop

We run a mobile workshop that moves around Brisbane each week. After we confirm by email (usually within a few hours), you bring your robot (and any parts you have) to that week’s stop — typically a public meeting spot such as near a park. Exact pin is emailed after booking. When we are on a public stop and choose to broadcast, a live GPS pin can appear on the repair-page map; if the map is quiet, rely on the emailed window — we hide the pin when travelling or off-duty.

Mobile meetup beats mail-in on trust and postage, and beats door-to-door on travel time — we stay put for a window; you drive in if you are nearby.

This week’s stop

Brisbane suburbs (rotating)

Weekly — request a meetup

Exact park/pin shared after we confirm by email

Mail-in packing

You arrange and pay postage both ways (to Brisbane and back). We do not include courier costs in the repair quote.

Ship the robot body only unless we ask for the dock or tank. Larger docks make postage expensive — try DIY parts first.

Local channels (Brisbane / SEQ)

We also post disclosed meetup and parts listings on Gumtree and Facebook Marketplace when there is a real stop or spare. Search BotRescue Brisbane — we do not ask you to message unknown accounts. Prefer booking here so we can confirm by email first.

Browse suburb pages— robot repair landing pages for Wynnum, Indooroopilly, Chermside, and more.

We’ll check whether repair is sensible before asking you to drive across town or ship anything.

What typical jobs look like

Brand / fault / outcome / cycle — sourced from official support plus Brisbane bench patterns. Not star ratings. After a paid repair, a Google review (once GBP is live) helps other owners.

Roborock

Error 5 — main brush jammed

Roborock Support: clear hair and debris from the main brush, both installation slots, and either end of the brush, then retry with Carpet mode.

Bench note: most Error 5 units leave after a brush clean the same day. Recurring jam after a clean brush usually needs motor/gearbox — quote before open.

DIY 15–30 min · Meetup same/next weekly stop if motor

ECOVACS DEEBOT

Robot will not charge on the dock

ECOVACS Support: confirm dock power and robot power switch, clean station charging poles and robot contact pads, then re-dock until the AUTO light shows charging.

Bench note: oxidised pads fix many “dead battery” tickets in one meetup window. Persistent no-charge after clean contacts → battery/dock assessment, not a blind pack swap.

DIY 10 min · Meetup 1 weekly stop for contact/battery

Maytronics Dolphin

Not climbing walls / waterline

Maytronics AU: hose-clean clogged filters, clear impeller debris (power unplugged), check water chemistry and cable slack — clogged filters often kill climbing thrust.

Bench note: filter + impeller clears restore climb for a large share of Brisbane pool robots. Still flat after that → drive/track or motor bench work.

DIY 20–40 min · Meetup when drive still fails

Dreame

Weak suction / filter path

Brand guidance across Dreame Ultra lines: wash and fully dry the filter, clear dustbin and ducts, then retest suction before assuming a fan fault.

Bench note: damp washable filters look like sealed fan failures. Dry overnight, then retest — fan module only if suction stays dead with a dry clear airway.
