 My first thought was that constructive repairs is somewhat tautologous. I'm not sure anyone offers destructive repairs (though you could argue that as a definition for cleaning). And I've never heard constructive used as the (insert fancy grammatical term here) of construct (cf construe).
Sometimes I really wish I'd paid more attention in English.
