Your Astronomy Gear,
Fixed Right. Fixed Here.
Don't ship your telescope or mount overseas and wait months for a repair. Bring it to our in-house technicians in Toronto — the same team that has been keeping Canada's night skies in focus since 1986.
He Was in the Hospital. His ZWO AM3 Was Left in the Rain.
One of our customers recently had a health emergency that landed him in hospital for several days. In the confusion of it all, his ZWO AM3 harmonic drive mount was left behind — fully set up in the backyard, exposed to the elements, including heavy rain.
By the time he was home and back on his feet, the mount wouldn't boot. Water had reached the electronics and damaged several critical chips. He came to us not knowing what to expect.
"Our technicians had the mount on the bench within hours. They identified the damaged components, made the repair, bench-tested everything, and had it fully operational and back in his hands — without him having to wait weeks for an overseas repair cycle."
The alternative? Pack it up and ship it to ZWO in China. International air freight — both ways. Customs documentation. An inspection queue. Waiting on parts. More waiting. A bill that reflects every mile it travelled. And weeks — possibly months — without your mount.
Instead, he walked out of our store with a working AM3 and a smile. That's the difference a local, expert repair service makes.

Comprehensive Repair for Modern Astronomy Equipment
From harmonic drive mounts to imaging cameras and everything in between — our technicians work on the full range of equipment used by today's amateur astronomers.
Telescope Mounts
ZWO, Sky-Watcher, Celestron, iOptron, and more. Mechanical repairs, motor and drive board replacement, electronic diagnostics, water and impact damage assessment, and full bench testing after every repair.
Computerized GoTo Systems
Hand controller repairs, motor controller boards, internal wiring, encoder issues, firmware flashing, alignment troubleshooting, and tracking calibration. If your GoTo has stopped going, we'll find out why.
Astronomy Cameras & Imagers
ZWO ASI cameras, guide cameras, dedicated astronomy imagers, USB and connectivity issues, and sensor-level diagnostics. We understand imaging gear because we use it ourselves.
Eyepieces, Focusers & Accessories
Focuser repairs and adjustments, filter wheel servicing, rotator calibration, and precision maintenance for optical accessories. Fine instruments deserve fine attention.
Optical Alignment & Collimation
Precise collimation for Newtonians, SCTs, and Cassegrains. Proper alignment unlocks everything your telescope's optics are capable of — and we'll make sure you're seeing it all.
