Terrible experience. I left him my flat screen tv 5 weeks ago and as of today after 10 calls, this guy named Bill kept saying the parts has not arrived yet. the parts were ordered 3 weeks ago. Even if the parts coming from Korea or China, it will take only 2 weeks to ship. I will not recommend this place. Beware. read more

I was highly impressed with Advanced TV Service. Bill is honest, knowledgeable and affordable. When he shakes your hand you know there is integrity behind it. My aging 3D flatscreen needed obsolete parts only available from China, and Bill was meticulous in ensuring any parts that he ordered were reasonably priced and returnable if they did not work. Bill picked up the TV at my house and dropped it back off in perfect working order. And my repair costs were half of what I thought what they going to be. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Advanced TV Service for all your TV repair needs. - Dave K. **** Writing this review on behalf of my dad who doesn't have yelp**** read more

Spoke with Bill who said he could not repair my tv. Asked him for a note or email to indicate that so I could give to my insurance/warranty. He said he could do it if I paid him $60. Not very stellar customer service. I would have given him my business if it was repairable, but not in the future. read more

Spoke with a very nice gentleman who helped diagnose my tv issue over the phone. Unfortunately our issue is difficult to fix and we would be better off getting a new tv. My husband and I are very thankful this gentleman gave us an honest opinion read more

Quickly response Very professional analysis On site service On time On schedule Reasonable cost read more

Advanced TV Repair did a great job with my 65" LG TV. They are responsive and prompt with their door to door service. Would recommend getting an estimate from them if you are having TV trouble. read more

One man operation s just be patient. He's no Best Buy but the has its Pros and very few Cons. Pro: you are a person not a job ticket being shuffled through the system. He gave100% to fix my TV. Very inexpensive! My TV was garbage so the problem came back but he gave advice over the phone and it worked! Awesome! Con: This is not a big-box electronics store so be a bit patient especially during the holidays but worth the effort. read more

Yes indeed he was very punctual, very knowledgeable, and spent greatest time more than he had to make sure to take care of all issues. I strongly recommend him to all who need any electric services. He is #1 in my list. read more

My three year old Vizio 70 Inch TV all of a sudden lost all power. I've never had a TV just die on me before, and I was especially surprised since it was only three years old. It's the holiday season so I really didn't want to have to spend money on purchasing another TV. I called up Bill from Advance TV Repair and asked if he could possibly do a house call (since the tv is not convenient to bring to him). He stated he would gladly come and and take a look (this service is a small fee of $40). He also was able to accommodate my working schedule by coming later in the evening (8pm). When Bill arrived we got the TV down from the wall mount and he thebegun testing the TV. After a short period of time he determined he had found the issue. Unfortunately it could not be fixed on site, so he dislodged the circuit board and brought it back to his shop. The very next day he fix the board and came back to my place. To my delight the TV powered back on! We put the TV back on the wall and began to plug everything back into the back of the TV. I had an issue remembering my input setup and I advised Bill he could leave but he insisted he stay until everything was working. The total service cost me $305 ($265 for the fix and $40 for the onsite service). If you bring your TV to him you can save yourself the $40 fee. Regardless $305 was a deal compared to buying a whole new TV. THANKS BILL!!!!! read more

Whoever runs this company does NOT do well w/ customer service. He is rude, impudent & abrasive off the bat. Before i could even explain my problem with my Tv he replied "i can not help you" & began to mumble, i asked him to repeat himself & he yelled I CAN NOT HELP YOU & hung up. What type of business owner speaks to customers this way? Its gross & idc if the guy can fix things or not, your mannerisms are still important & there are many other repair shops that want peoples business & know how to communicate. read more

wow!! What a great guy!! Came all the way up from Torrance and took on a very challenging job. The TV was attached to the wall and absolutely not working. Bill got it down, took his time, really made sure every cord and plug in was working and voila! Back in business!! Bill was professional, funny and really kind. I would highly recommend his services to any and all! read more

William was quick to respond and provided honest repair guidance and costs on my TCL tv that completely lost picture but still had power and sound. The warranty of course just ran out. William helped diagnose the issue. read more

My Samsung TV started turning itself on and off after less than five years of use. I was determined not to throw away a couple of thousand dollars of electronics so soon. I found Advanced TV Repair on Yelp. This shop seems to be a small one man operation. Its website is pretty bare bones. When I called, Bill said he could be over within an hour. Hmm. Either I got lucky or he's not very busy. But I was glad for the quick service call. I was at work due to the quick service so my wife met him. She was not terribly impressed with his old service van. Bill quickly determined he couldn't fix the TV at my house and needed to take the TV to his shop. My wife said he carted the TV out with a dolly without wrapping the TV in a blanket or any kind of protection. Bill said it would be done in a week and quoted me a price. A week went by and I called him to see how the repair was coming along. He said it would be ready the following day. The next day he brought the TV back, again without any kind of protective covering. My wife noticed right away a couple of small scratches on the screen. They weren't deep and could not be felt by touch. Luckily you can't see them when the TV is on. Bill also didn't replace the original screws on the back of the TV when he took the panel off to get to the inside for the repair. Also he left the TV screen covered with fingerprints and didn't clean them off when he brought the TV back. However it's been a month now and the TV works great and that's all that really matters, isn't it. I swear the picture looks better than before. I got an LCD screen cleaner and the screen looks like new. I also paid the price he quoted, which saved me a few thousand dollars instead of buying a new TV. So Bill knows what he's doing when it comes to TV repair. However if you're put off by tiny local business operations you can take your chances with bigger outfits like the Geek Squad. But Advanced TV Repair got my job done at a reasonable price. read more

This guys style wasn't to my liking but he eventually solved the problem. He charged a reasonable price for the work he did. I probably won't use his services again because our personalities definitely clashed but the TV works. Update: i did not like this guy at all. And even more so now that he feels the need to leave a comment implying that I was satisfied when clearly I was not. He was rude and unprofessional and I won't be using him again. read more

Bill is a nice guy...but I would not recommend him for repair service. I dropped off my television set on Tuesday, January 26, and he couldn't remember if he repaired the tv or not. He is a very nice guy. However, I don't think that he should be repairing televisions anymore. I am on my way to pick up my television set now. It was not repaired. He said that he couldn't find a circuit to replace the damaged one. I went online myself and found one for $60 bucks. I think that age is playing a role here. He probably was good at one point but not anymore. I went to him based on the comments provided in Yelp. I hope this saves another person from having the same experience I just endured. read more

Love this small business Guy came in, fixed the TV, got a check and left... No corporate complication. Price was good and service was quick and efficient. read more

He arrived late at night and it he worked until he fixed my Samsung. This involved soldering. He was very knowledgeable. very professional. I highly recommend him. Maralee Santa Monica read more

I bought a Vizio TV from Costco and it turned out to be a piece of junk. The display had two black, horizontal lines through the whole screen after only 3 years of use. Thankfully, I purchased the TV using Costco's Visa, which gives you two additional years of warranty on top of the manufacturer's warranty. I had to provide an estimate for the repair with some pictures as well as the proof of purchase. I called Advanced TV Repair and spoke with William. He told me that the TV was not repairable and that he would create an estimate for me for $45.00. I emailed him the Model and Serial numbers along with some pictures and the estimate was ready within a day. Very quick and efficient. I was dreading having to bring this clunker down to the shop and Bill took care of everything in a quick and very efficient way. Thank you so much for your help! I filed a claim with Visa and got my refund. Will never buy another Vizio again but will definitely use Advanced TV Repair and recommend it to all my friends. Great Job, Bill! read more

3 stars. Needed a fix for my TV. They are "authorized repair" for several big brands. It was easy to book a service call. The job was done well, but he was running later than the promised window of time and did not call to let me know, so plans had to be altered on my end. A "heads-up" courtesy call would have been a nice, professional, business practice. Verdict: try to get a confirmation on the time and you should be ok. read more

Bill did a good job. Saved our TV, was quick gave us a loaner and did what he said he was going to do. Only down side was that I had to help him get it to and from his van. read more

The audio on my tv stopped working. I called Advanced TV and he arrived to my residence a few hours later. They fixed my tv and charged a reasonable price. They were efficient and knowledgeable on tv repair. I recommend this company to anyone who needs tv repair. read more

So my 3 week problem was Bill's 60 second problem. He should be renamed as the "TV Wizard". I left a message for him this evening and he returned it within a minute or so. In 10 minutes he was already in my living room, working on my tv and in 4 minutes he was out with my tv looking sharp as ever! I recommend him to anyone who needs their tv fixed! read more

He is a one man shop but he certainly knows his job. The Guy was helpful...he examined my tv there wasn't any issue and he didn't lie to me. he told me my tv is good and returned it back the next day. Charged me reasonably. nice guy. read more

Bill knows his stuff, AND he is a nice guy. I actually took a musical instrument (keyboard) to him to repair because it was only coming on with batteries. Bill troubleshooted the issue by asking the right questions, opening the unit and testing whether any eletricity was getting to the unit, and by looking at the actual power adapter. He nailed it. It was the power adapter, which I had failed to successfully isolated as the root cause. I will use him again for any of my electrical/ electronic needs. read more

Fixed my Samsung TV which was taking its time turning on, clicking on and off for increasingly longer times. Bill knows his stuff, came to my house the same day I called, did the job, TV works. Well worth the price. He inspires confidence, clearly very experienced. read more

I took my 2 year old with no picture on screen Samsung tv to Bill ,after another so called technician missed diagnosed the problem and was unable to obtain the necessary part to repair it. Bill immediately demonstrated his competence with the modern equipment to diagnose the issue and ordered the power board. He additionally made other adjustments to return my tv to factory specifications. Better than new! read more

Pros: -TV has been working for the past hour (will update if it's faulty again) -He verbally said he'd insure my TV if anything related to his repair/the issue comes up -He lent a loaner TV free of charge Cons: -Won't hear back from him unless you call/text him first -Forgetful; he'll tell you your TV is fine, then that it has an issue, then that is has a different issue, but then tell you to disregard the mistake -Late; he won't show up at all or show up 2 hours late -Insists he has to pick up the TV (and charge a pick up fee) even if you're capable of bringing the TV in read more

Bill just left our house (10:30pm). My husband called around 9p tonight to schedule a repair. Bill offered to come in 15 minutes. He was professional, quiet (tiny house with a sleeping baby!), efficient, and reasonable. I appreciate honesty and will look forward to recommending him! read more

Bill diagnosed my problem and told me how to take care of it over the phone. Hallelujah it worked! No charge but I sent him a little something anyway. read more

The guy showed up at my house and fixed it quickly, I paid by check. He was completely honest and had no problem identifying the problem over the phone as I described it. read more

LG 50 inch flat screen had an electrical problem. Over time, I would turn on the TV and it would would make a popping sound then shut off. This got progressively worse until it would not turn on. I purchased this TV for over $2,500 when new and could buy a new one for $700. I thought a repair would be at least the new TV price. Advanced TV came to the house, loaded the TV and returned it within 3 days. It cost half the price of a replacement and, to this day, works like new. I highly recommend Advanced TV. read more

Bill was very dependable and repaired our Samsung tv within a week. He picked it up and dropped it off, and even gave us a loaner tv while he worked on ours. Definitely would recommend his tv repair services to anyone. read more

Bill knows his stuff. I lost power on my tv and it started to smell burnt electricity/wires. Bill made a free diagnostic on it and he fix it the same day. Thank you for your help Bill. read more

A+ Bill. A+. You are the best. Whoever thought you could get such great, affordable, high quality service to come to your door at such a reasonable price?! I will call you every time Bill. Thank you thank you thank you! read more

Nice guy. Really worked with me to get my projector fixed, and even came and picked it up. Will give him my business again if in need of electronic repairs. read more

My 2007 Samsung HDTV was taking forever to turn on. Bill showed up and fixed it quick and easy. Good dude.

This is a great, locally-owned company. Bill, the owner and chief technician, has been in business in the South Bay for over 30 years. How cool is that? An owner who actually shows up and meets his customers? Great job! This man was was prompt, well-dressed, polite and humorous. He showed up on time,and when the TV couldn't be fixed w/ the first service call, he then scheduled a follow-up service call for the next day. And now, 2 days after calling Advanced TV, my old-school 32" Sony is up and running again, just in time for the Dodgers games this week-end. Thank you, Bill!!!!!!!!!! read more

It is so rare to find someone like Bill. I called from San Diego when my elderly mom's TV went out....I couldn't even get past the automated message at Time Warner for help. He came within hours and fixed the TV...she spends almost her whole day in front of it and would be so lonely and lost without it. I am beyond grateful for his willingness to go out of his way and work late into the evening to help us out. Many thanks!!!!! read more

I called geek squad at best buy first they wanted 80 dollars for them to come out and look at the tv and it would be next Tuesday. I called Bill and he was more then happy to come down within an hour. he took a look at the tv and instantly knew how to fix the problem gave me his price to fix it and I said okay in heart beat. After fixing the problem! Bill took the extra minute to plug in my gaming systems changing video settings for me making sure my tv was best quality for me! Thank you!! Saved me so much money read more
