I'm not doing any checking or repair at the moment.

I've heard good things about:

A1 sofrim. they don't have a website, but his name is Aharon Lichter, the phone number is 212-254-1400, and the address is 473 FDR Drive (entrance on grand st). He was lovely (but i didn't tell him that I put on the tefillin) (in Manhattan)

and about stam.net.

R' Eisenbach, at 41 Essex St in Manhattan, phone 212 674 8840, has been rather sweet to me when I've been in there.

West Side Judaica sometimes takes tefillin for checking and sometimes won't, I think it depends on whether you get the guy in a good mood or not.

Some time soon I intend to do a survey of tefillin-checkers. I'll go in with my tefillin-which-need-checking and see whether they're polite to me, whether they're willing to check my tefillin, whether they'll try to bullshit me because I'm a woman, etc. A few weeks later, I'll send a prosthetic male on the same errand, and we'll compare results.
