iPhone screen replacement for a dark, dim display
This iPhone's display had gone dark and dim. We opened it from the front, moved the parts it needs onto a new screen, fitted it, and it boots to the Apple logo on the new screen.

What breaks in University City households
These are the jobs that come through our door most weeks from Newell, Derita, Mallard Creek and the apartments around campus.
Cracked iPhone and Galaxy screens
The most common repair we do. Plenty are ready while you wait, and Covered Screen is included with every screen we replace.
A PS5 with no picture
Usually a damaged HDMI port. We micro-solder a new one here, with jumper repairs when the traces under the port are torn.
A MacBook that won't turn on
We find the part that failed on the logic board and repair it, instead of quoting you a whole new board.
Controllers that drift
We fix stick drift, or upgrade the sticks to Hall Effect so you are not buying another controller next year.
Dead phones and drives full of photos
Data recovery happens in our shop, including from devices that got wet, burned or dropped.
Old iPods and retro consoles
iPod Classic flash storage, bigger batteries, new shells and Rockbox. Retro consoles get repairs and upgrades too.
Protecting the whole household's gear
If your home has a couple of phones, a laptop, a tablet and a console, Covered Everything is the simple choice. It is $19.99 a month for one phone plus up to 25 more devices in the home. Claims cost $50 on the phone and $99 on anything else.
Living alone with one phone? Covered Plus is $5.99, $7.99 or $9.99 a month depending on what the phone is worth, with $50 claims and 2 claims a year. It pays for drops, spills, liquid damage and battery or charging failures. Loss and theft are not part of it, and claims open 31 days after you join.
We set your plan up when you collect your device. Cancel whenever you like.
Clearing out the junk drawer for cash
Our buying side goes by Charlotte Tech Trade. If it's sitting in a drawer in your house, it might be worth more than you think.
