How do I know if my TV is worth repairing?

Deciding if it’s worthwhile to repair a TV depends on its age, size, features and the cost of repairs. You’ll also need to check if the TV is still under warranty. The general 'rule of thumb', is to avoid repairing a television that is more than 15 years old. It is not uncommon for technicians to find multiple problems in older sets. Putting R2000 - R3000 into an old TV that will probably break in a year might not be the best choice. However, there are plenty of TV sets that work perfectly fine after 15 years of service. Your best option is to have your device checked by a technician in Port Elizabeth and see what can be done.

How long will my TV last once it has been repaired?

There is no way guaranteeing that a repaired TV will last longer than a few years. It might only last for a few months to a year. It all depends on what kind of servicing has been done to the device and if the device has been cared for in the best way possible. Your best bet is looking for a repair technician in Port Elizabeth that provides professional services and a warranty option. This means that if the TV fails within a certain time period you can have it repaired again for free.

Can an LCD screen be fixed?

No, LCD screens cannot be fixed once they are broken. However, the screen can easily be replaced if you are willing to pay the price. This screen is one the most essential parts of the TV and unfortunately there is no economical way of welding the screen so that it looks new again.

What happens if I see the picture on my TV with no sound?

It’s difficult to pinpoint an exact problem without inspecting the TV. Some TVs have a mechanical switch that turns the speakers off and on, see if you can locate that switch and turn it on. Otherwise, check the TV’s audio settings and make sure nothing has been changed.

Can my TV be repaired on site?

Yes, TVs are usually repaired on site because it’s easier for the customers and the technicians. Moving big screen TVs around can be tiring and costly. However, you must be prepared to have the technician working in your home in Port Elizabeth for an hour or two. Repairing a TV doesn’t make a lot of noise, but it could be distracting.

How long does it usually take to repair a TV?

On average, TV repairs take 30 minutes to an hour. It greatly depends on the problem and if the repair parts are readily available in Port Elizabeth. If a technician spends hours on end trying to fix your TV, it’s very likely that they don’t know what they are doing or they’re having troubles fixing the TV. Try to check in on the process as much as possible.
