Nearly every tablet repair

Screens, batteries, charging ports, cameras, bent frames, and board-level basics. The jobs that actually walk in, all covered.

memory

Board work is not a dead end

With a thermal camera and a DC supply you can read a board, find a short, and stop turning away every "no power" device.

alt_route

Know what to outsource

You learn where your limit is and how to hand off advanced board work instead of destroying a customer's device.

Higher ticket than phones

Far fewer shops touch tablets. Less competition on the same street, and a bigger invoice per repair.

Vendor access from day one

Tablet parts are harder to source than phone parts. You leave with the suppliers we actually buy from.

Support after you leave

When you hit a repair you have not seen before, you have someone to ask.
