Hired this guy to fix my tv($150), and had the same problem all over again within a week. He does not warranty his work, is very dishonest. I actually feel like I've been scammed. read more

Excellent service. Owner/operator is not a conversationalist, however knows his trade very very well. I had a repair from him on an older Vizio done same day and it he tv has been working flawlessly ever since. Dare I say the picture and sound even looks better than before. Would recommend him to everyone in a heartbeat. read more

I gotta give a 5 star. After explaining my problem of a LG 55" tv going black screen, the owner told me he could fix it for $100. I took the TV to him and he helped me unload it from my car and walk it in to his bench. before the end of the day he texted me that he had it fixed and for the amount he quoted. I've been using the tv for over 10 days and it is good as it was when brand new. read more

I don't know of any other options in town, so I've found myself coming here on multiple occasions for TV repairs. They've always seemed to do a pretty good job, so as far as the actual repairs go, I can pretty highly recommend this place. There's just something weird about it. As you pull up, the sign out front clearly says, "free estimates." Still, they've made me leave a deposit each time. Once inside, the place almost looks like an episode of hoarders. It's like a mad TV scientist's laboratory. Be prepared for a good repair, a quirky staff, and an overall weird experience. read more

Bluff Park Tv Repair - Electronics Repair Near Me - Birmingham, Alabama

Knowledgeable TV repair man with busy shop. Quick to communicate and really great price to repair my TV. A little odd man but knows what he's talking about and repaired a TV I almost threw out. He also told me what to do in order to make the TV last many more years. He's an older man, and not such a pretty and neat workshop, but if I know anyone that needed TV repair I'd recommend him over big box store any day. read more

Horrible experience with this place. You better bring security with you before you visit this place because owner will not accept any complaints about his service. In fact, it is very dangerous to stay close to him when you begin to complain about anything. read more

I've been meaning to write this for a while, after having my TV repaired a few weeks ago by Bluff Park TV Repair. I wanted to be sure to leave good feedback after seeing the poor reviews online. I think this guy deserves some good feedback. Despite the mostly negative reviews, I took a chance (not much else around here) with my 46" Samsung LCD flat screen that got hit by lightning. This TV is about 6 years old, got struck about 3-4 years ago, and has, since that time, been sitting in a closet. It would not turn on. So, I took it to Bluff Park TV Repair (BPTVR). Like another reviewer (Will) said, the place is pretty sketchy looking. Also, as he mentioned, it clearly says "free estimates" on the sign outside, but he required a non-refundable $20 diagnostic fee, which supposedly goes toward the repair. It was odd that they only accept cash or checks, but that's their choice, so I paid with a check. When you walk in, the place is a MESS. As Will said, it is indeed like a "mad TV scientist's laboratory". There are TVs, cords, parts, tools, and all kinds of stuff just everywhere. It is not confidence inspiring. However, I wasn't hiring him to organize my home, so I stayed. He took the TV info, explanation of what happened to the TV, got my check, and sent me on my way. He gave me a receipt with the TV's serial number and all, and said he'd call me when he figured out what was wrong. That was Saturday. I received a call on Thursday or Friday saying that he had found the problem, and had the parts in stock. He said it would be $140. I told him to go ahead with the repair. I think it was Friday or Saturday that he called to tell me the TV was ready. I told him I couldn't get up there to pick it up for a couple of days. He called me again, I think Monday, and asked when I could come get it. It sounded like he was either anxious to get paid, or just free up some room (understandable given how the place looks). I picked it up the next day. When I arrived, he had it hooked up and showed me that it indeed worked. I paid him the $140 with a check, took the TV, and have been watching it with no problems ever since. That was three weeks ago, and it's still working well. So my total was $160 with the $20 diagnostic fee. Here's how I score BPTVR (5 star scale): Quality of work: 5 stars - It was broken, it now works Speed: 5 stars - One week from drop off to TV being ready is fast in my opinion Price: 5 stars - I think $160 is very fair to repair what was a $1500 TV that was otherwise junk Friendliness: 5 stars - We talked for a minute, nice guy Appearance: 2 stars - This is the only reason I won't give him an overall 5 star review, the place just looks unprofessional Anyway, I am very happy with my experience with BPTVR. Hopefully, I'll never need his services again, but if I do, I'll go back. He seems like a good, old-school, honest guy. I have no complaints beyond the misleading sign outside and the shamelessly messy shop. I would recommend them to anyone who can look past the mess. Sorry for the book of a review. read more

This place is straight TRASH! Do NOT trust this scam of a business! We brought our 60inch TV for repair. After the owner took apart the entire tv he said he COULD NOT repair it. After we ask him to put the TV back together and give us the TV back. He simply said "I already trashed it" and told me to go outside and dig in the garbage to get my TV!!!! His integrity is disgusting! DO NOT BRING YOUR BUSINESS HERE! read more

Took me a second to find his place because the sign was down. He requires a $20 (cash or check only) deposit. I understand this, because diagnosis takes time. Sure enough, he was able to fix my samsung 55" TV. The HDMI inputs had gone out. He found a part a replaced them. Total cost was $160 (deposit + $140). Better than spending $500-$600 on a new comparable TV. All in all took about three days. He definitely runs a low-overhead operation, but he's friendly and hey we're all trying to make living. Bottom line: Last week: TV broke. Now: TV works. Price was way better than buying a new one. So yes, I recommend him. read more

I have decided today that I don't want my TV fixed. BPTR has had the TV for 1-1/2 weeks. I called today and asked if we could just come and pick it up. I had already given him $40 when he picked it up and now wants $20 more dollars to redeliver. I can live with all this, with all our disruption, but this man used 4-letter words insulting me. He has talked over me every conversation. He also will not listen, and hung up on me. read more

This place is a SCAM! They will charge you 20$ to look at your tv, the main guy Bill will then run his "secret" tricks to try to fix it (secret because he will not tell you anything that he did to try to fix the tv because "he can't give away his tricks") None of these "tricks" will work and he would have scanned the Internet for hours for the parts but can't find any so he will then tell you it's unfixable and that he will "throw it in the dumpster for you" HOWEVER he doesn't throw it in the dumpster he then gets the "missing" part, fixes the tv and then sells your tv. It's a complete scam. This exact situation happened to me and he insisted that he just throw it in his dumpster, I told him I wanted to keep it which upset him. When asking him what was wrong with the tv he said "I can't tell you I can't give away my tricks" which I responded, I'm not asking you for how you found the problem but what the problem is which is what I paid you 20$ to do. He then said "you paid 20$ for me to give you an estimate and my estimate is that your tv can't be fixed." He finally came out as said "you need a new main board and that part can't be found so I can't fix it I looked for it for 2 hours." I then showed him how from one Google search the part was in stock at 5 stores. This continued but don't feel like getting into what all else he said. Bill is a shameless criminal and is operating a complete scam of a business, do yourself a favor and stay away read more

Be prepared to leave any item that's not a flat-screen requiring a 15 minute fix here for weeks only to be told that 'it's too much trouble for me to fix' and refused the return of the 'diagnostic fee' with no explanation of what was diagnosed. The owner is a shameless thief. read more

Beware! Beware! Beware! This is a scam. on 9/21/18 Bill came to my mother's house and picked her tv up for repair. First off, he charged her $35 for an estimate. I talked to him later that day and he said that it was a good tv, worth $700-800, and he would order the part needed to fix it. The following Wednesday, he called and said the tv was "a piece of junk" and he couldn't repair it but he had a tv that he could sell her for $150. I called him later that day and told him it was fine if he wanted to sell her a tv, but we still wanted the broken one back. At that point he hung up, called back within 5 minutes (with an attitude) and said that he decided that he didn't want to sell his tv after all. Saturday morning I called to see when he could deliver the tv back to my mom. He said you can come pick it up since he wasn't making money off of it! (still with an attitude). Needless to say, when I got there Saturday afternoon, he was nowhere to be found. I returned on Tuesday morning to find out that he had given my mom's tv away to another customer "by mistake." At this point I had to call to make a police report because I was fed up with his foolishness. We were quickly able to come to an agreement and my mom was reimbursed for her tv. I'm pretty sure it was only because the law was involved and I had threatened to take him to court. Stay away from this crook. From the reviews that I have read, he makes a habit of saying he can't fix your tv, only to fix them and sell them to someone else! read more
