On-Site & Shop Repair Services
On-Site Repair (We Come to You)
Can’t move your TV? No problem. Our technician comes to your home or office in Soweto, diagnoses the fault on the spot, and repairs it where possible. Large-screen TVs, wall-mounted sets, and built-in home theatres are best handled on-site. Book by calling or WhatsApp on 0704843613.
Shop Repair (Drop It Off)
For more complex repairs — board-level work, screen replacements, or when parts need to be ordered — you can drop your TV at our shop. We handle it in our workshop and call you once it’s ready. Most repairs are done within 24–72 hours.
Both options come with a repair warranty so you have peace of mind after every job.
Tips to Prevent TV Problems
A little care goes a long way. Here’s how to keep your TV running longer:
- Use a surge protector — Power surges are a leading cause of board failures in Nairobi.
- Don’t block ventilation slots — Overheating kills TVs slowly. Leave space around your set.
- Keep it dust-free — Dust inside the TV causes overheating and short circuits. Clean vents regularly.
- Avoid leaving it on standby for too long — Switch it off fully at the wall overnight.
- Handle the remote gently — Banging remotes on surfaces damages the IR sensor over time.
- Don’t ignore small signs — Flickering, colour changes, or strange sounds are early warnings. Fix them early before they become expensive.
- Stabilise your power supply — If you’re in an area with frequent low voltage, use a voltage stabiliser.
