How To Get Started

Step 1 - Check that we can upgrade your clippers

Please ensure your Lister Eclipse is a 1st generation machine. As a general rule, any Lister Eclipse purchased after August is likely to be a 2nd generation. If you’re unsure, please contact the shop where you purchased your clipper.

Step 2 - Tell us about your clippers

The more information you can provide about your clippers, the better. If you require a quote before work goes ahead, please make this clear on the paperwork sent with your clippers.

Step 3 - Package your clippers well to protect them in transit

If your clippers have a plastic carry case, please send them in the case for added protection. We recommend using bubble wrap or other padding around the case itself. Otherwise, pack well in a strong cardboard box. 

Remember to include the charger and battery if you are sending a battery powered machine.

FAQ

Are there additional costs for the upgrade?

The upgrade cost covers the new components and labour. If our engineer identifies any further issues during the upgrade, we will contact you with a quote before proceeding.

Can I request other repairs at the same time as the upgrade?

Yes! If your clippers require additional maintenance or repair, simply note this on the service form and our engineer will inspect them during the upgrade process.

How long does the upgrade take?

We endeavour to keep our turn around times to an absolute minimum but September-December is notoriously busy. We post regular updates relating to turnaround times on our sharpening and social media pages. We kindly ask that you take note of these before sending your machines in for servicing.


As of March 2026, our turnaround time is approximately 1-2 weeks from arrival. This is subject to change weekly.

Damages

Unless is it explicitly obvious that any damage to a machine has occurred in transit to you us, we will assume that you are already aware of any damages.

If damage does occur in transit to us, we will do our best to
document it before contacting you to let you know.

For more information relating to our damages policy, please read our sharpening and servicing/repair Terms and Conditions.

Reporting a Problem

Please check your machine once returned to you. All parts worked on during the service come with a 3 month service warranty.
