Don't waste money on a new TV this Christmas!

12/13/2013

Every year, around this time, people start heading to their local big-box department store to pick up a TV that they saw advertised in a commercial. The price is so cheap that you ask yourself, "Who could pass up this great deal?"
Well, what you might not realize is that all of the stores are putting out their cheapest junk for the holiday season hoping to suck a desperate Christmas shopper into their trap. Yes, the prices are extremely low, but this is because these TV's are of the cheapest quality.
Don't get taken this holiday season! It is better to fix your broken TV then purchase a brand new TV that will need to be repaired by next Christmas! The old saying still holds true, "You get what you pay for." With Precision TV Repair, you will have your broken TV working like new again and save some money this Christmas season!

Beware!

11/1/2013

We have all seen the cartoons where one of the characters are electrocuted showing their bones through their skin but with no long lasting damages. These type of shows can lead the amateur, do-it-yourself, weekend hobbyist the illusion that repairing a TV is safe and can only have the same results as they have seen on their favorite cartoon. The reality is that electricity can cause skin burns, muscle damage and death. Even at low power levels it can inflict great pain (Just ask someone who has been the victim of a taser). (And even at those lower levels it can kill - if someone is hit in the chest with a taser, for example, or suffers from a weakened heart) Those who survive severe shocks (especially by lightning) often suffer from brain damage afterwards. An alternating current is more likely to kill you than a direct current, but a direct current is still very dangerous.
Please don't try to fix your TV by yourself - allow the professionals at Precision TV Repair to use their many years of experience to help successfully repair your broken television. Contact us today! You will be glad you did!

Here are some common questions about TV repair that we often hear:

Q: Is my TV worth repairing?
A: Yes, in about 95% of all calls that we receive, it is cost effective to fix your TV rather than purchase a new one.

Q: Why should I consider fixing my TV if I can purchase a new TV for a low price that I saw in an advertisement?
A: Yes, there are some low advertised prices out there but you have to remember that these TV's are the cheap models that are meant to get you to come and shop at that store. These "cheap" TV's will end up needing to be repaired in a very short amount of time. If you have a quality TV that has been working for a while, then don't replace it with a cheap model or you will pay!

Q: Can you fix any TV problem?
A: Yes, the only thing that is not repairable is a cracked or broken screen.

Q: Is it true that new TV's are meant to be disposable and can't be fixed?
A: This is a lie that many TV manufacturers have created to get you to purchase a new TV instead of getting it repaired. Think about it - more new TV's purchased means more money for the big corporations! Do not buy into this lie meant to steal your hard earned money!!

DANGER! Don't try to fix your TV by yourself!

8/9/2013

People often ask if it is safe to work on their broken TV themselves? The answer is, NO!
The biggest danger one faces when trying to repair or work on a TV is the possibility of electrocution. Even if you have unplugged your TV, electricity still remains in its circuits. Without taking the proper precautions, it is very easy to get electrocuted especially for those with little or no experience working with high voltage devices. The human body is a natural conductor, and electricity will literally jump through your body if you mistakenly touch a part of the TV's electrical system.
Stay safe and let the experienced and professional service technicians of Precision TV Repair make your TV like new!

STOP! Don't toss that TV!

5/31/2013

Are you mad at your TV for breaking down? Do you want to throw it in the trash? You might be so mad at your TV that you want to hit it with a baseball bat and break it into little pieces. Maybe you were about to turn on you favorite show and it didn't want to power on. Maybe it has been broken for a long time and has just been sitting in your basement collecting dust. Whatever your situation is, a broken TV is always frustrating.
STOP! You can repair that broken TV for a fraction of the price of buying a new one! Don't let your emotions of anger or frustration lead you to making a costly decision. When we face difficulties, our emotions tell us to resolve it quickly, and in this case that would mean throwing out the TV and quickly purchasing a new and expensive TV. But, if you take the time to settle down and think through the situation, logic will tell you that it is much better to repair that broken TV set than to spend a bunch of money on a new one. Don't believe what the big TV brand corporations tell you - they say "These TV's are not meant to be repaired and that it is cheaper to buy a new one."
This is almost always not the case. Yes, you can purchase a cheap advertised TV on sale, but guess what? If you buy a "cheap" TV you will get a "cheap" TV! And then, in a very short time you will find yourself with another broken TV. The smarter thing to do is fix old faithful! If your TV has been working for you in the past, chances are, with some repair work done on it, it will work for years more. The professionals at Precision TV Repair make it work like new again and keep your money where it belongs - in the bank!
