cable repair

Wiring service call

Cable repair is the work of fixing damaged cables—whether electrical wiring, telecommunications lines, or the coaxial cables that deliver television and internet service.

The term often refers specifically to service calls from cable companies: We're waiting on cable repair to fix our internet.

It can also mean the industry or occupation generally.
