Game console repair
Loud fan, hot case or shutting off mid-game? We clean and fix the cooling.
We don't quote repairs online: every device is inspected before anything is charged. Diagnostics are free.
If a PS5, Xbox, Switch or laptop sounds like a jet engine, gets very hot, or shuts down during demanding use, the cause is usually dust packed into the heatsink and fan, dried-out thermal paste or a fan that is failing. We open the device, clean the whole cooling path, refresh the thermal interface, and replace the fan when it is no longer spinning properly. Temperatures and noise are checked under load before it goes back to you.

How it works
No pressure and no surprises: you decide at every step.
We open the console, find the real fault (port, chip, power or software) and tell you in plain words.
You get the price and the timing before any work starts. Say no and you pay nothing.
Ports and connectors are replaced by micro soldering, fans are cleaned and modules swapped, without touching the rest of the board.
We run it with video, sound and discs or games, check the temperatures, and hand it back with the warranty.

Very good service, they fixed my battery and cleaned my port very quickly. Phone works great now!
My boy miguel got me in and out in no time. Had a problem with my Hdmi he got squared away for me quick. Also was able to clean my playstation out for little charge any problem i’ll definitely recommend and know who to call.
When I used to turn on my ps5 or start up a game, it would make loud noise because the fan was putting too much effort to keep the ps5 cooled down. Now ps5 is almost no noise and is starting games faster. Thank you for good service, it was worth the extra wait time for the cleanup service.
Straight answers before you come in.
Usually not. Dust packed into the heatsink and fan, or dried-out thermal paste, is the most common cause. We clean the whole cooling path first and replace the fan only if it no longer spins properly.
Yes. We open consoles (PS5, Xbox, Switch) and laptops, clean the cooling path, refresh the thermal paste, and check temperatures and noise under load before they go back to you.

This repair carries a 90-day warranty on the installed part and the labor. It does not cover new impacts, drops or liquid contact after the repair. If the same fault comes back within that time, we look at it again at no charge.
It depends on your device and model. The diagnostic is free and you get an upfront quote before any work begins. If you decide not to go ahead, you pay nothing.
No. Walk-ins are welcome during business hours. Booking online or calling ahead is optional, but it helps if your model is uncommon and you'd like us to confirm the part first.
