What we repair

We handle a wide range of electronic equipment. If your item isn’t listed below, get in touch — chances are we can still help.

  • Laptops & desktops — boot failures, screen and keyboard replacement, liquid damage, thermal issues
  • Gaming consoles — HDMI ports, drives, cooling, power faults, retro consoles
  • Monitors and displays — backlights, panels, power boards
  • Amplifiers and audio equipment — hi-fi, guitar amps, mixers, professional audio gear
  • Vintage electronics — recapping, sympathetic restoration, hard-to-find component sourcing
  • PCB-level component repair — surface-mount and through-hole rework, trace repair, micro-soldering
  • Embedded systems and firmware issues — bricked devices, bootloader recovery, custom firmware
  • Industrial and specialist equipment — control boards, test gear, lab and workshop kit

What we don’t handle: mobile phones (parts are increasingly serialised and often unrepairable without manufacturer keys), tablets where Apple/Samsung lock parts to the device, household appliances (microwaves, washing machines), and anything safety-critical (medical devices, automotive ECUs). If you’re not sure, ask — we’ll be honest about whether it’s a job we can do.

Mail-in only. We do not offer a walk-in service — all work is handled by post so we can give every job our full attention in the workshop.

What does it cost?

Every job gets a free, honest diagnostic and a firm written quote before we touch a screwdriver. You only pay if you approve the work, and we don't charge if we can't fix it.

Free diagnosis No charge to look at it and give you a quote.
No fix, no fee If we can't repair it, you don't pay for the work.
No surprise charges We never exceed the agreed quote without your say-so.

Typical price ranges

These are indicative ranges for the most common jobs. Your actual quote depends on the specific fault, parts cost and how labour-intensive the repair turns out to be — we'll always confirm a firm figure before any work begins.

Postage is extra. You cover the tracked-and-insured postage both ways. Return shipping is charged at cost and itemised on your invoice — we never mark up postage.

How the mail-in process works

Six straightforward steps from first message to a working device returned to your door.

  1. Contact us with a description and photos Tell us what’s wrong, when it started, and include clear photos so we can scope the work properly.
  2. Receive a free no-obligation quote We’ll reply within one business day with an honest assessment and a price — no cost or commitment.
  3. Send your item to us Once you approve the quote, post the item tracked and insured. The customer pays return-to-us postage.
  4. We repair and test thoroughly The job is carried out in the workshop and put through full functional testing before we sign it off.
  5. We invoice you — payment before return dispatch You’ll receive a clear invoice along with photos (or a short video on request) showing the repair completed and the device working. Once payment clears, we’ll prepare the item for return. See our FAQ on payment for how this works in practice.
  6. Item returned to you tracked and insured Carefully packed and dispatched with a tracked, insured service so you know exactly when to expect it.
90-day repair warranty. Every repair we carry out is guaranteed for 90 days. If the original fault recurs in that window, we’ll put it right at no cost.
