Repairing Microsoft devices in Brisbane since 2017(9+ years)

From the bench
Notes from our workshop — what we see on Microsoft Surface Tablet
Real observations from our certified technicians — the things you only learn after thousands of repairs on the same model. No marketing spin, just what we actually deal with every day.
We diagnose first, quote second
Every repair starts with a free bench diagnostic. We open the device, identify the failed component, and quote the exact part — never an estimate. About 1 in 6 customers find the actual issue is cheaper than they expected; we'd rather earn the repeat business than maximise a single ticket.
Battery health on arrival
Most phones brought to us for performance issues actually have a battery sitting around 78-82% health. A fresh cell solves the lag, the reboots and the heat — in that order. Before quoting anything else we check the battery, because it's usually the cheapest fix.
Genuine-grade parts with a 12-month warranty
We use OEM or genuine-grade parts on every repair and cover both parts and labour for 12 months. If something fails inside the warranty period we replace it free — no fine print, no admin runaround.

Our services
What we fix on your Microsoft Surface Tablet
Expert Microsoft Surface Tablet repairs with genuine parts, fast turnaround, and a comprehensive 12-month warranty.
How a Brisbane repair should feel — diagnosed, quoted and fixed by humans who actually care about your device.
12-Month Warranty — IMEI on file
Every part we fit and every minute of labour is covered for 12 full months. Screen ghosts, battery swells, port fails — anything we touched, we fix free at any of our three Brisbane stores. No receipts to dig up; your IMEI is on file.
Bench-trained specialists
Our senior techs trained at OEM-authorised repair centres before opening here. Every iPhone, MacBook and Galaxy on the bench is worked on by someone who's already done that exact repair hundreds of times — not a teenager's first week.
Same-day, in & out
Phone screens and batteries: 45–90 minutes, done while you wait. MacBook displays, batteries and keyboards: same-day on the common SKUs. Board-level rescues and rare-part jobs: usually next-day, sometimes overnight — always quoted upfront.
Three part tiers — your call
Every quote lists three options side-by-side: Incell LCD (budget), Soft OLED (most popular) and Genuine-OEM (factory spec). You see the price for each and pick what fits — no bait-and-switch to a cheaper part after you've said yes.
Transparent pricing
Surface Tablet pricing — no surprises
Price range
$129—$399AUD
Surface Tablet repairs in Brisbane start from just $79, with most screen and battery jobs completed same-day. Every repair is covered by a 12-month warranty — upfront quotes, no hidden fees.
What affects your price
01
Your specific model
Newer flagships cost more because the OLED and camera assemblies are premium. We quote every model transparently before starting.
02
Part quality tier
Where multiple part tiers exist (OEM vs aftermarket), we show the full price for each so you always choose the right balance of price and quality.
03
Repair complexity
A single-component repair is faster and cheaper than combined repairs. Bundle pricing applies automatically when you book more than one.
No hidden fees 12-month warranty Same-day on most repairs
Instant quote

Final price confirmed on inspection. Includes premium parts, professional fitting and a 12-month warranty.
Our process
How we repair your Surface Tablet
Same routine for every device that lands on the bench — diagnose, quote, fix, retest. No shortcuts.
01
Free 20-point bench diagnostic
Free on-the-spot diagnostic that checks battery health, hidden water indicators, True Tone status, every sensor and a touch-grid stress test. You see the actual fault on screen before any quote — never an estimate.
02
Written quote, signed off
A written quote with the part tier you picked, labour estimate and same-day vs next-day timeline. You sign before we open the device. Whatever you saw at the start is what you pay at pickup.
03
Calibrated-bench repair
Repair runs on calibrated gear: torque-controlled drivers (so screws never strip), ESD-safe mat, hot-plate at 65 °C for clean adhesive release. Each component is tested as it goes back in — not just at the end.
04
Full QA before handover
Final QA covers Face ID, True Tone, multi-touch, all 4 mics, both speakers, every camera lens, every sensor, wireless charging and a quick charge-discharge cycle. Photos at start and end go on your repair record.
Privacy-first
Your data, treated with respect
Your phone holds your life. We treat it like we would want our own treated — locked drawer, signed-out accounts, no nosy looks.
Device stays locked — always
We never ask for your passcode, PIN or Face ID. Every repair is done with the device locked. If a sign-in is required to verify a feature, we hand it back to you to do it.
Locked cabinet, key access only
Devices left overnight go straight into a CCTV-covered, key-locked cabinet at the back of the workshop. Staff never take customer devices home.
Chain-of-custody log on every job
We timestamp who received it, who worked on it and who handed it back. The log includes photos at intake and after each part swap — you can ask to see it any time.
No cloud, no backups, no snooping
We don't open Photos, Messages, banking apps, or sign into iCloud / Google. Repair Wi-Fi is isolated from anything personal. Data recovery is a separate, signed service — never automatic.

Skilled specialists, genuine parts, 12-month warranty — same-day service on most repairs.
Very prompt service and overall waiting time was convenient. The repair made the phone look as-new and the technician was generous enough to throw in a free screen protector! This is my second experience here and I can proudly say it was a 5-star service both times. Highly recommend!
Walked in with a completely broken screen and cracked back glass on my iPhone 15 pro, and within an hour, left with it good as new. Staff was obviously very well versed in his skills, as well as being kind and generous, highly recommend their services!
I recently had my phone repaired at this shop, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and transparent throughout the entire process.

Back glass + battery replacement on an iPhone 14 Pro Max. Happy with the quality of the repair, and the whole process was smooth and painless, excellent customer service, and generally, really pleasant sales/service personnel. Highly recommend!

My Samsung Galaxy's back glass was destroyed after a bike crash. They matched the finish perfectly — you genuinely can't tell it was ever broken. Top tier work.

iPad mini charging port was dead. Thought it was gone. They cleaned and repaired it in 40 minutes for a quarter of what Apple quoted me. Absolute lifesavers.
“Pixel 8 water damage”
My Pixel 8 got water damaged at a beach weekend. They did board-level work overnight and it came back better than new. Honestly incredible technicians.

Apple Watch Series 9 screen cracked during a run. Swapped it in under an hour. Faster than Apple and $200 cheaper. This is my repair shop for life now.

My MacBook Air's keyboard had three dead keys after a coffee spill. Full top-case replacement, perfect work, and they explained every step. True craftsmen.
