SNR Guelph & Fergus | Phone, MacBook & Computer Repair

It starts with something small: a phone that only charges at a certain angle, a laptop that powers on one day and not the next, or a device that suddenly goes completely dead. It is easy to assume the whole device has failed — but very often, the real culprit is a single tiny component on the logic board. Modern phones and laptops pack a great deal of technology onto one board. A damaged charging chip, a failed power circuit, or a cracked solder joint can stop the entire device, even when the screen, battery, and storage are fine. That is where board-level microsoldering comes in. Microsoldering is precision repair done under a microscope. Instead of replacing the whole board — an expensive option that can also mean losing your data and settings — our technicians diagnose the board, trace the fault to its source, and repair or replace only the failed component. The result is often a working device again, at a fraction of the cost of a full board replacement, with your files and setup i...

At SNR Guelph Cellphone and Computer Repair, a water-damage inspection goes far beyond wiping the outside dry. Our technicians open the device, inspect the board and connectors for corrosion, clean the affected areas properly, and test the key func...
