Common questions

Very often, yes — especially if the socket looks bent or wobbles. First rule out the cable, the TV input and another screen; if a known-good cable and TV still give nothing, it's usually the console's HDMI port, which I can replace at board level. There's a full checklist in my guide.

It's repairable in the large majority of cases. The port is lifted off with hot air and a new one soldered on. It's only a problem if a previous attempt has torn the pads off the board — I'll check first and tell you honestly.

Yes — the worn thumbstick module is desoldered and replaced, then recalibrated and tested. I can fit a standard replacement, or a Hall-effect stick that doesn't wear out and won't drift again.

Most are back with you within a few days once I have the part in. I'll give you a realistic timescale with your quote — and it stays local, never posted off to a third party.

It depends on the device and the specific fault, so each job is quoted after I've assessed the board — you'll have a fixed price before any work starts, with no charge for taking a look.
