Our Repair Procedure: Transparent from Diagnosis to Delivery
Step | What We Do | Why It Matters |
---|---|---|
1. Fault Intake | Record model/serial, fault symptoms, service history, accessories received | Ensures correct parts matching and traceability |
2. Safety & Visual Checks | Check for shorts, burnt components, liquid ingress, cracked panels | Prevents further damage during testing |
3. Power & Board Testing | Measure rails (5V/12V/24V), ESR test caps, test PSU load, inspect T‑Con/Main | Identifies root‑cause beyond surface symptoms |
4. Firmware & Software | Check firmware version, boot logs, reflash/update if corrupted | Fixes boot loops and app freezes |
5. Component‑Level Repair | Replace bad ICs, ports, LEDs, ribbons; perform precise rework | Restores function without unnecessary board swaps |
6. Calibration & Burn‑In | Brightness/colour calibration, thermal run for 4–8 hours | Ensures stability and picture quality |
7. Quality Control | Picture, sound, connectivity, ports, tuner and remote tests | Verifies all features before release |
8. Warranty & Delivery | Document report, warranty card, safe delivery to your estate | Peace of mind and convenience |

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Do you offer on‑site TV repair?
Yes—for setup issues, remote/IR faults, wiring, wall‑mounting corrections, simple power cord replacements, or software resets. Board‑level and panel/backlight jobs are done in our workshop for safety and precision.
Q: How long do repairs take?
Many faults are completed within 1–3 days after approval. Complex repairs or panel orders may take longer depending on parts availability. We’ll keep you informed at each step.
Q: Is it worth repairing an old TV?
Often yes, especially for large screens or premium models. We’ll compare the repair cost against replacement and advise honestly.
Q: Do you offer pickup and delivery?
Yes. We cover all Nairobi estates with careful pickup and return services.
Q: What voids the warranty?
Physical damage after repair, liquid damage, power surges without protection, or third‑party tampering. We recommend a good surge protector and proper ventilation.
Preventive Tips to Extend Your TV’s Life
- Power protection: Use a quality surge protector or UPS, especially in areas with unstable mains.
- Ventilation: Avoid enclosing the TV tightly; heat shortens component life.
- Backlight longevity: Keep brightness at 50–70% to reduce LED wear.
- Periodic updates: Install firmware updates to fix bugs and app issues.
- Clean connections: Dust HDMI/antenna ports occasionally and use quality cables.
- Wall‑mount correctly: Proper VESA mount and spacers help airflow.
