Top 5 Signs Your Office Chair Needs Immediate Repair

Updated: July 2025 | Category: Chair Repair & Maintenance

Office chairs are crucial to workplace comfort and health—but they often get neglected. Identifying early signs of damage can prevent bigger repair costs or even injuries.

1. Wobbling Base or Uneven Legs

If your chair rocks side-to-side or feels off balance, it may indicate a broken base or loose hardware. Continued use could lead to a sudden break.

2. Sudden Sinking or Hydraulic Failure

Does your chair drop suddenly while seated? A worn-out gas lift (hydraulic) is the likely culprit. Replacing it restores proper height adjustment and support.

3. Creaking, Clicking, or Grinding Noises

Noisy chairs aren't just annoying—they're signs of loose or damaged mechanisms. Lubrication may help temporarily, but recurring sounds often mean parts need tightening or replacement.

4. Cracked or Warped Armrests

Broken or uneven armrests can lead to poor posture and shoulder pain. These should be replaced, especially if they’re essential for ergonomic support.

5. Faulty Casters or Jammed Wheels

If your chair no longer glides smoothly, the wheels may be clogged or damaged. Replace them to restore movement and protect your floors.
