Component-Level Electronics Repair
When a device won't power on, won't charge, or shows a fault that goes deeper than a cracked screen, the problem is often sitting on the board itself. We diagnose and repair logic boards and motherboards at component level — under magnification, with the right microsoldering tools — to get your device working again.
What We Repair
Board-level repair makes sense when a fault sits in the circuitry itself rather than in a part we can simply swap out. We always inspect the device first and tell you whether board-level repair is realistic before any work begins.
MacBook board faults can show up as no power, no charging, random shutdowns, a blank or flickering display, or symptoms left behind after a spill.
Windows laptop motherboard issues — Dell, HP, Lenovo and others — can cause no power, no boot, charging faults, display problems or damage after a liquid spill.
iPhone, iPad, Samsung and Huawei board faults can affect charging, touch response, display behaviour, audio or camera function.
Have a different device? We also look at game console boards and other circuit-level electronics — get in touch if you're not sure whether yours is covered.
Faults We Inspect
The same symptom can come from more than one cause. We check the board, test the power circuit and look for hidden damage before telling you what's actually wrong.
A device that won't switch on may have a failed power circuit, a short, liquid damage, a damaged connector or a board-level fault.
Water, coffee and other spills can corrode tracks and components, causing faults that show up well after the liquid has dried.
Charging problems can come from the port, the cable, the battery, the charging chip, or damaged tracks on the board itself.
Some screen faults sit on the logic board rather than the panel — backlight, touch and connector issues can need board-level repair.
Our Process
Board-level repair usually needs a proper look before we can quote accurately. Here's what happens once you bring your device in.
Let us know the device, the symptoms, any liquid exposure, and anything that happened right before the fault appeared.
Under magnification, we test for shorts, corrosion, failed components and power rail issues to find the real cause.
You'll hear whether the board is repairable, whether it's worth repairing, and any risk involved — before we touch a soldering iron.
Once you approve the work, we carry out the component-level repair and test the device before it comes back to you.
