Businesses in this industry provide services of restoring machinery, equipment, and other products to working order, as well as routine maintenance to ensure that they do not break down in the future and cause unnecessary repairs. There are multiple sectors within this sub industry, including electronic and computer maintenance, commercial and industrial machinery maintenance, and personal and household goods repair and maintenance. Although there is some overlap with the auto repair sub industry, the maintenance industry is still a distinct category.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a mixed effect on the industry — while some operations had clientele that remained closed throughout the pandemic, other operations saw an increase in revenue as their clients frantically ordered extreme and frequent cleaning. These differences in clientele have led to significant disparities between the success of various sub industries within the cleaning and maintenance industries.

Over the past few decades, the advent of personal technological devices such as computers and cell phones has created a subset within the maintenance industry that deals with maintenance and repair for these personal devices. However, as disposable income rises and it becomes cheaper to buy a replacement device than maintain or repair an existing one, this industry is expected to experience a decline in revenue. The other major subset of the maintenance industry is one of machinery and heavy equipment maintenance. The pandemic has severely curtailed profits, especially with the separation of essential and non essential businesses by the US government. Stay-at-home orders have created a disruption in the global supply chain, which have correlated with a decline in demand for maintenance services. It is estimated that industry revenue declined 12.6% in 2020 alone.
