Hi, There is a replacement available for Damaged Iphone 7 - 7 Plus - 8 & 8 Plus Home buttons
It requires the replacing of the original Charging port & Flex with an aftermarket modified Charging port & Flex
The modification allows the installation of a aftermarket Home button
Both the flex & button are included within the kit
The replacement will operate the “Return to Home function” but will not facilitate the “Touch ID facility” essentially the same as the Iphone 5’s & Iphone 6’s with replacement Home buttons..All the functionality but no “Touch ID”
This is achieved essentially by replacing the Iphone 7’s & 8’s button (which are effectively Electronic sensors) with a old style mechanical Button (Internally) Similar to the older Iphone 5’s & 6’s… Cosmetically once they are fitted the new replacements are identical to the newer Iphone 7’s & 8’s style buttons…. The replacement Buttons have the “Click” when pressed unlike the Iphone 7 & 8 Buttons
I repair phones Professionally & before finding these replacement Kits have dreaded the Home button repairs for both the Iphone 7’s & 8’s
They are ordinarily damaged (innocently) by the Iphone owners attempting to replace their own screens & tearing the Home Button flexes (often not enough to be seen by the naked eye, but enough for a tiny Data line to be broken)
Thankfully this Kit allow’s both owners & shops to remedy a big issue caused by the non functionality of the Home button
There is a small issue to be aware of, That is because of the replacement Flex modification the “Headphone via the Lightening to 3.5mm Jack adaptor” doesn’t work? Bluetooth headphones will still work OK though

If the home button didn't work, then you got it to work, then it stopped working again, "don't ask how you got it to work" is kind of the opposite thing that needs to happen there.
Soldering a new connector on the home button is very delicate work; most shops will simply replace the home button assembly as a unit. Are you sure that's what they did? Also note that replacing the home button will disable Touch ID; the home button is keyed to the motherboard so replacing it will break that association.
Without knowing exactly what your phone has gone through, any attempt at diagnosis here is going to be little more than a guess.
