I ordered a new keyboard, looked at a youtube repair video, and realized that I was completely out of my depth. I took it to Wolfie who deftly disassembled the entire machine, discovered that I had the wrong keyboard, then built up a replacement with pieces from the old and new keyboards. This involved careful work on plastic pieces. The result has worked great now for a couple of weeks. I give Wolfie my highest recommendation.

It went well and I had my screen replaced in about an hour. This was on a foreign phone (Oppo Find N5, a fold phone not sold in the US) that 3 other shops declined to work on. Pricing was good also, so I give this repair service an AAA+++ rating.

Stephen was able to walk me through getting it to a safe place over the phone.

Unlike other PC repair services that jump straight to charging for a diagnosis, Stephen actually took the time to give me troubleshooting advice--for FREE! Stephen genuinely cared about saving me money and even suggested that I contact the PC brand's customer service first before having him work on my PC. His honesty and willingness to help without asking for anything in return really stood out. If I ever need professional repairs, I know exactly where to go. Highly recommend!

They make smart decisions in your favor, honor their commitments even when it takes thrice as long, and communicate far better than most computer jocks. Finding them has been an enormous relief. If they tell you a price, take it from someone who once managed the IT that enabled the management of ten figures of people's money: Pay what they ask and feel good about it. If you want to buy a new machine, pay what they ask. You will get fair value. I liked everything about them. Is it too bad they got out of the retail location? Sure, but these are the times. I'd rather have them as they are than anyone else with a storefront. I just hope they keep doing what they do.

At 1:45pm, I called, and asked where the tech was, as no one had shown up yet. The woman, come to find out, the owner, never made an appointment. But would send someone right away. He finally showed up at 2:45pm. I asked if he had the equipment to fix my memory limatations and was told he isn't trusted with stock, would have to take my laptop in to the shop and it would be there about a week. Upon examination, he advised disk replacement again saying he'd have to take my laptop to the shop with a week turn around. I advised him I could not be down that long and would have to seek another repair company. He then told me it would be hard to find someone else and threatened to take care of my attitude himself, at which time I demanded he vacate the property, then calling the police about him hanging around outside my residence and threatening me. Consequently, I write this review hoping no one else utilizes this company as it's not as reputable as it used to be a few years ago, when Frank Loomis worked there. I can understand why Frank left, now. The ownwer is a complete whack-a-doodle.
