Testimonial
I came across Fitness Equipment Ireland while searching for an alternative company to service our gym equipment. Having had a negative experience with another company, I was hesitant to rush into another service contract. Samantha organised to come down to visit us onsite and went through how the service contract from Fitness Equipment Ireland would work, what they would commit to in terms of response time and took a list of all our current equipment. I can only say the whole experience from day one to present has been exceptional. I won’t be going anywhere else for servicing or equipment.
No issues, friendly team, very responsive with excellent communication, which is extremely rare in my experience. Since moving to Fitness Equipment Ireland, our members have commented on numerous occasions on the improved time frame to get machines back operational. We would recommend their servicing contracts to all gyms. Machine/equipment downtime is a killer in this industry. Having a service partner who we can trust to maintain and fix our equipment promptly allows our members to have a functional training space, feel they are getting value for money and helps massively with membership retention.

Preventative Servicing
- Looking after your gym equipment is one of the critical things to do to prolong its life and keep it in good working order. Having regular machine servicing significantly reduces the effects of faulty machines as they ensure that parts are still in good working order. Cardio equipment and strength machines require weekly, quarterly, and semi-annual tasks to keep them in proper condition.
- Nothing is more frustrating for gym members than equipment that is out of order. Below we have a checklist for each of the equipment to help you do maintenance.
