PlayStation Repair
From PS3 through to the latest PS5 — HDMI ports, disc drives, overheating, power failures, DualSense controller drift, and more. Wellington's most experienced PS5 repair specialists.
Xbox Repair
Xbox Series X, Series S, and all One generations repaired. Overheating, HDMI failures, disc drive issues, USB port damage, and controller thumbstick drift all diagnosed and fixed.
Nintendo Repair
Joy-Con drift, charging port failure, cracked screens, and dock issues on Nintendo Switch, Switch Lite, and Switch OLED. Most repairs completed same day — back to gaming fast.
Controller Repair
Thumbstick drift, broken buttons, faulty triggers, USB-C charging issues — we fix DualSense, DualShock 4, Xbox controllers, and Joy-Cons. Affordable controller repair, no need to replace.
Every Console Problem Fixed
We diagnose and repair every type of gaming console fault — from simple controller fixes to complex motherboard-level repairs.
HDMI PORT REPAIR
No signal on your TV? Bent HDMI pins? HDMI port physically broken? This is one of the most common console faults — especially on PS5 and Xbox Series X. We replace HDMI ports using micro-soldering techniques, restoring full 4K output. Most repairs done within 24 hours.
OVERHEATING & FAN REPAIR
Console shutting down mid-game? Fans running at maximum noise constantly? Overheating is the #1 cause of console failure. We deep-clean the cooling system, replace thermal paste, and where needed, replace faulty fan units — extending the life of your console significantly.
DISC DRIVE REPAIR
Console not reading discs, making grinding noises, or rejecting discs entirely? We repair and replace optical disc drives on PS5, PS4, and Xbox Series X consoles. Disc read errors are often fixable without full drive replacement — we assess your unit first.
POWER ISSUES & NO BOOT
Console won't turn on, flashes a light and turns off, or randomly loses power mid-game? Power supply faults, blown capacitors, and corrupted firmware are all diagnosable and in most cases repairable. We perform a full power circuit analysis on every no-boot console.
JOY-CON & CONTROLLER DRIFT
Thumbstick drift — where your character moves on its own — is the most complained-about gaming issue in New Zealand. We replace analog stick modules in Joy-Cons, DualSense, and Xbox controllers, eliminating drift completely. Most controller repairs done same day.
LIQUID DAMAGE RECOVERY
Spilled a drink on your console or controller? Act immediately — power it off and don't attempt to turn it back on. Bring it to us for ultrasonic cleaning and board-level corrosion removal. The faster you come in, the better the recovery chances for your console.
CHARGING PORT REPAIR
Nintendo Switch won't charge? DualSense USB-C port not connecting? We repair and replace USB-C, Micro-USB, and proprietary charging ports on all console and controller models. Loose connections and slow charging are often simpler fixes than you might think.
SCREEN REPAIR – SWITCH & PORTABLE
Cracked or dead display on your Nintendo Switch, Switch Lite, or Switch OLED? We replace screens on all Switch models including the premium OLED panel. Quality replacement parts that match original brightness and touch sensitivity.
SOFTWARE, FIRMWARE & STORAGE
Console stuck in safe mode, corrupted firmware, or SSD/HDD failure? We restore PS5 and Xbox software errors, perform firmware reinstallation, replace failed storage drives, and upgrade internal SSDs for faster load times. Full software diagnostic is always free.
Not sure what's wrong with your console? Free diagnosis — no charge if we can't fix it.

What Lower Hutt Gamers Say About Us
Real reviews from real gamers in the Lower Hutt and Wellington region who got their consoles back in action.
"My PS5 had a completely broken HDMI port — no signal at all. Sony quoted me $400+ for a repair and 6 weeks wait time. Phone Fixer fixed it in under 24 hours for way less. Absolutely perfect result. 4K gaming is back and it's flawless."
"Nintendo Switch Joy-Con drift was driving me insane for months. Took it to Phone Fixer, they fixed both Joy-Cons the same day. The control is now perfect — zero drift whatsoever. Can't believe how fast and affordable it was. Will never buy new controllers again."
"Xbox Series X was overheating and shutting down every 20 minutes during gaming. Phone Fixer cleaned the cooling system, replaced thermal paste, and serviced the fans. Now it runs cool and silent even during 3-hour gaming sessions. Absolutely worth every dollar."
"PS4 wouldn't read discs — was about to give up and buy new. Phone Fixer diagnosed it as a faulty laser lens and had it fixed in 48 hours for a price that made complete sense. They're honest, fast, and genuinely know what they're doing. Top shop."
"My kid spilled a drink on the Nintendo Switch. Took it straight to Phone Fixer — they cleaned it and recovered it completely. Screen, buttons, everything works. Saved us from buying a $450 replacement. Incredible service and very reasonably priced."
"DualSense controller developed severe drift and the R2 trigger was sticky. Phone Fixer repaired everything in a few hours. The controller feels better than when it was new. Transparent pricing, 90-day warranty, and genuinely friendly staff. Can't fault them."
