Whether you take advantage of Remote Access Hearing Care for troubleshooting or programming support or need to bring them by the office for maintenance and/or repair, Provincial Hearing has you covered.
Our hearing instrument specialists frequently encounter a range of issues and are equipped to offer the precise repairs your hearing aids may need.
Three Common Hearing Aid Repair Issues
Among the thousands of hearing aids we’ve repaired over the years, the majority of repair issues fall into one of three categories:
- Wax buildup penetrates the delicate electronic components, causing them to malfunction.
- Excessive moisture leads to shorting or a faulty connection due to corrosion.
- Broken components and loose wires from dropping and/or stepping on your device, faulty components, or daily wear.
Quick Tip: Most repair issues can be avoided by developing a faithful habit of daily cleaning and care of your hearing aids, avoiding moisture, performing frequent inspections of your device to identify problems before they get worse, and keeping up with deep cleaning and scheduled maintenance appointments.

Q. Why should I trust you to fix my hearing aids?
A. We’ve been repairing and servicing hearing aids for several years, keeping hundreds of clients happy, many without even having to send the hearing aid to a factory to be repaired!
Q. Can’t I just repair my hearing aid at home?

Q. Should I replace or repair my hearing aids?
A. There are occasions when repairs might cost more than replacement, but that’s usually not the case. If the damage is irreversible and it is covered by your device manufacturer, then replacement makes a lot of sense. It also makes sense if your hearing aids have a long history of needing repair, are out of warranty, and/or are near or beyond the typical five years of service in order to take advantage of new technology.
Q. How long will repairs take?
A. Simple repairs can be done while you wait. When there is extensive damage or when we have to send them to the manufacturer, it will take longer, but we’ll work to get them back to you as soon as possible.
