My MacBook Pro would not turn on and I thought it was gone for good. Mike diagnosed it quickly and had it sorted within a couple of days.
Google review★★★★★
iPhone would not charge at all. They cleaned out the charging port, checked the whole phone over and saved me buying a new one.

Drone repair questions
Do you repair DJI drones?
Yes. DJI is the brand we see most often. We repair the DJI Mini series, Air series, Mavic series, FPV, Avata and Avata 2.
My drone crashed — can you assess the damage?
Yes. Bring it in and we will carry out a full inspection. Crash damage often affects multiple systems simultaneously — motor, ESC, gimbal and frame — so a thorough assessment is important before any repair work begins.
Can you source parts for my drone?
We stock parts for the most common DJI, Autel, Parrot and Yuneec models. For less common models we can source parts — bring your drone in and we will confirm availability and lead time.
How long does a drone repair take?
Simple repairs such as battery or port replacements can often be completed same-day. Crash damage assessments and gimbal repairs typically take 2–5 working days depending on parts availability.
Is it worth repairing an older drone?
That depends on the repair cost and the value of the drone. We will give you an honest assessment — if a repair is not economical we will tell you clearly.
Need your drone repaired?
Bring your drone to our Newport workshop for a free assessment and repair quote. No obligation to proceed — we will explain the fault and the cost clearly before starting any work.
