On-Site & Shop Repair Services
We understand that moving a large TV is a hassle. That’s why we offer two flexible service options:
On-Site Repair (We Come to You)
We send a technician to your home or office in Kawaida. This works well for large TVs, wall-mounted sets, or when you simply prefer not to move your appliance. We carry tools and common spare parts on every visit.
Shop Repair (Drop It Off)
Prefer to bring your TV in? Our workshop is equipped for deeper repairs — board-level soldering, parts replacement, and full testing before we hand it back. Turnaround is usually 1–3 days depending on parts availability.
Both options come with the same quality guarantee.
Tips to Prevent TV Problems
A few simple habits can save you a costly repair:
- Use a surge protector — Power surges from Kenya Power are a top cause of TV board damage.
- Keep the TV ventilated — Don’t place it in a tight cabinet. Heat kills electronics.
- Dust it regularly — Use a dry cloth. Dust blocks vents and causes overheating.
- Don’t leave it on standby 24/7 — Switch it off at the socket overnight.
- Avoid direct sunlight — UV and heat degrade screen quality over time.
- Handle the remote gently — Dropping it causes sensor misalignment.
- Keep liquids away — Even humidity can damage internal boards.
- Update smart TV firmware — Manufacturers release fixes that improve stability.
