Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is it worth fixing a 3-year-old TV?

A: Often, yes. If the issue is a backlight failure, power board, or HDMI port, repair costs are typically 40-60% of buying a new unit. We provide a clear quote after diagnosis. If it's not economical, we'll tell you straight up.

Q: Can you repair a cracked TV screen?

A: Unfortunately, cracked panels are rarely repairable. The cost of a new panel often exceeds the price of a new TV. However, we can diagnose if the issue is actually the T-Con board or backlight, which are repairable.

Q: How long does a TV repair take?

A: Most board-level repairs (backlights, power boards, HDMI ports) take 1-2 days. We diagnose on-site, order parts if needed, and perform the repair in our lab. We keep you updated throughout the process.

Q: Do you offer a warranty on repairs?

A: We don't sell warranties, but we stand by our work. If the specific component we replaced fails within 90 days, we'll fix it again at no charge. We believe in honest diagnostics and quality soldering.

Q: Do you come to my home for TV repair?

A: Yes! We serve the entire Tri-Cities, TN area (Johnson City, Bristol, Kingsport, Elizabethton, Blountville, Piney Flats, Bluff City). For large TVs, we can often diagnose on-site, but complex board repairs may require bringing the unit to our lab.
