Board-level repair for Matthews, 20 minutes away
Plenty of shops around Matthews can swap a screen. The jobs they ship out are the ones we do every day: MacBook logic boards, PS5 HDMI ports, drones and data off dead drives. It is about 20 minutes on I-485 and I-85, and your exact price is online before you book.
Why the drive beats the depot
When a local shop says your MacBook needs a new logic board, it usually means the laptop leaves town for a few weeks. We do board-level micro-soldering in our own shop in University City, so the failed part gets replaced and the rest of the board stays.
Pick your model on our site and the exact price is there before you book. The diagnostic is free, and if we can't fix it, you don't pay. We've been at this since 2013, first as We Save Data, with more than 85,000 repairs behind us and 4.9 stars from over 1,700 Google reviews.
Most booked from Matthews
What Matthews homes usually bring in
Liquid on the keyboard or a charging fault often comes down to one chip. We find it under the microscope and replace just that part.
A bent or torn HDMI port gets micro-soldered here, including torn-trace jumper repairs that other shops pass on.
Bring the drone and its controller. We repair crash damage in-house and tell you what it needs before any work starts.
Data recovery happens in our shop, even from drives that took a drop or a spill.
Many phone screens are done in under 30 minutes, and most repairs go home the same day.
Before you sign off on a replacement
A replacement quote isn't always wrong, but it's often more than the problem needs. A few questions can save you real money.
- Ask which part failed, not just what a whole new board costs.
- Get our free diagnostic first. The look costs you nothing.
- Don't let anyone wipe a drive you haven't backed up.
- Every repair we do carries a 90-day warranty.
- If the drive is a stretch this week, mail it in. We ship it back free and insured.
One monthly plan for the whole house
Matthews households tend to have a phone per person, a console in the den and a laptop for school or work. For $19.99 a month, Covered Everything protects one phone and as many as 25 other devices under your roof. A claim is $50 on the phone and $99 on the other devices.
If you only want one phone protected, Covered Plus runs $5.99, $7.99 or $9.99 a month depending on the phone, with a $50 claim and two claims a year. It covers drops, spills, liquid, battery and charging failures, and claims open 31 days after you join. A phone that walks off or disappears is outside what it pays for. Either plan is set up when you pick up your device, and you can cancel anytime.
Screen repairs already come with Covered Screen. If the kids crack that new screen within 12 months, the next one is free.
Turn the drawer of old devices into cash
Most families have a box of retired phones, a laptop nobody opens and a console from before the last upgrade. Charlotte Tech Trade, our buy and trade side, will make you an offer on phones, iPads, laptops, MacBooks, game consoles and drones. TVs and monitors aren't on our buy list.
Type in the model and how it's holding up, and an offer comes back by text.
Take cash the same day, or put the value toward a repair.
Financed devices are accepted.
We erase each device in front of you before it changes hands.

Questions from Matthews
Is it really worth driving from Matthews?
For a basic screen, a nearby shop may do. For board work, console HDMI ports, drones or data recovery, 20 minutes in the car beats weeks of waiting on a depot.
Do I need to book ahead?
No, walk-ins are welcome Monday to Saturday from 10am to 7pm. Booking online lets you see the exact price for your model before you get in the car.
Can you fix a MacBook logic board instead of replacing it?
Usually, yes. We track down the failed component and replace that part. Looking costs nothing, and if it can't be fixed, neither does the visit.
We have three kids and two consoles. Which Covered plan?
Covered Everything at $19.99 a month protects one phone and up to 25 more devices in your home. If one phone is all you care about, Covered Plus starts at $5.99 a month.
Can I sell my kids' old phones and consoles?
Yes. Tell us the model and condition online, we text an offer, and you can take cash the same day or credit toward a repair. We wipe each one in front of you.
How long are repairs guaranteed?
Each repair we do stays under warranty for 90 days. Screen replacements also include Covered Screen, so a repeat crack within 12 months gets a free screen.
Can I send something instead of driving?
Yes. Mail-in works from anywhere in the US, and the trip back is free and insured.
