    I've a Karcher Pressure Washer with a problem.
    Had a look myself, but it's all sealed, etc. I suspect a bad seal somewhere which prevents it from building up the pressure.

    Anywhere in Limerick repairs these?
    There's nothing on the karcher website :(

    There is an electrical rewind place on Mulgrave Street that will repair it for you, it is right nextdoor to the old Esso filling station near the Pike Inn. My old man brought his pressure washer in there and they managed to fix it.

    Will check it out...
    Is it "B & W Rewinds Limited"?
    Only rewind name I could find in the phone book on Mulgrave St ;)

    you can pick up a pressure washer (110-120 bar) in B&Q, homebase ect for about 80-90 yoyos might be cheaper than the repair.

    Thanks Kablam...
    Have dropped it into B&W Rewind to see what it costs. I suspect a seal gone, so should be relatively straight forward... Will post back once done.
    If it's too much I'll be rethinking the repair route...

    Slightly OT - but related...
    I've had 2 pressure washers fail in the 4yrs since I've moved to limerick despite low usage. I wonder if the water is too limey (Raheen) and/or pressure just too low for them?
    Anyone else experiencing similar problems.
