repair workers

Those who mend

Repair workers are people whose job involves fixing things that are broken or malfunctioning.

The term covers a wide range of trades—from appliance technicians to auto mechanics to building maintenance staff.

The landlord sent repair workers to fix the leak.

Unlike specialists identified by what they repair (plumber, electrician), repair workers is a general category emphasizing the fixing function rather than the specific trade.
