The minimum requirement for working as an electrical appliance installer and repairer in order to be able to repair audiovisual equipment is the CTM IDAVE (technical certificate for the trades of Audio-Video and Electrical Appliance Repairer). This is prepared in 3 years through an apprenticeship contract (training between CFA and company) to have the basics while practising them. However, having a baccalaureate level opens more doors. There are various courses, including the SEN (digital electronic systems) vocational baccalaureate, which is very popular. In addition, the certificate of professional competence for maintenance technicians in household appliances is also very popular.

A household appliance installer-repairer carries out various tasks on behalf of private individuals, but also companies and communities. They diagnose defective appliances, identify the faulty part (the source of the problem) and then dismantle it before replacing it. They also reconfigure the equipment to ensure that it works properly, and then monitor the general condition of the equipment to anticipate the risk of breakdown. In the repair of audio equipment, the installer-repairer also proposes an estimate after diagnosis. Only after acceptance by the customer will he proceed with the repair, the various control tests and the restarting of the equipment. He concludes his service by filling in an intervention form. Moreover, the intervention is most often carried out at home, but it is not rare for the professional to work in an after-sales service workshop.

Hiring a household appliance installer and repairer will allow you to get your audiovisual equipment back in working order: television, hi-fi system, MP3 player, headphones, etc. If we can no longer operate one of our audiovisual appliances, it is to this professional that we must turn. He is able to find the cause of the breakdown and can easily replace the defective parts if possible - yes, unfortunately some devices cannot be repaired, especially those in miniature in which the components are glued/soldered to each other.

Today, it is becoming easier and easier to find an audio equipment repair specialist through a directory such as StarOfService. Just follow the instructions on the screen and you'll come face to face (virtually speaking) with many appliance repairers in your region or city.

The rate for audio equipment repair will depend on the type of appliance, but also on other parameters, such as the type of malfunction. The majority of electrical appliance installers charge by the hour and there are also travel costs to be expected. The average rate is between €40 and €80 per hour for labour. Small appliances such as a hi-fi system, TV, MP3 player or sound bar usually take less than an hour to repair and it is common for repairers to charge a flat rate.
