What do console repair services include?

The game console repair service includes all the tasks necessary to make a non-working or malfunctioning game console work as intended. To repair popular consoles like the PS4, Xbox One or Nintendo Switch, your console repairman can do troubleshooting followed by the needed repairs. After completing the repairs, they can test the system to ensure the console is back to its original working order. 

Troubleshooting the problem 

Your console repair specialist begins by inspecting the different functions and components of your gaming console. They may also check each game disc for dirt or scratches if reading or loading errors occur. Your specialist inspects the cables, controllers, connection ports for issues. The monitor or TV and the Wi-Fi are checked as appropriate for any video, audio or connectivity problems. Once the problem is found, your console repair specialist works on the necessary fixes.  

Checking connections

Your console repairman checks all the connections that lead to and from the gaming console. This includes the HDMI cables, the HDMI ports on both the TV or monitor and the console, the power plugs and the controller ports. Your specialist can also check your internet for connectivity problems and do the appropriate fixes. 

Cleaning the internal parts

Defective gaming consoles can trace some of their problems to issues with heat management. The cooling fan usually causes this, along with the heat sink and other internal parts choked with dirt and debris. 

Your console repair specialist disconnects the console, shuts off the power and opens your game console’s case. They then clean the fan, heat sink, hard disk if any, and other parts with a non-static brush or blast from a can of compressed air. The case is reassembled once all the cleaning is done.

Rewiring the console and controllers

Some issues on your gaming console or its parts may be due to wires that have snapped or got cut from excessive bending. Your console repair specialist can check the wires on the controllers, HDMI cable or other connecting cables, and the power cable. Should any cut wires be discovered, your specialist can install new wires and splice or solder new connections.  

Replacing the non-working components

Any parts that no longer work on your consoles, such as the cooling fan on your PS4 or Xbox or the PS4 hard disk can be replaced if necessary. Note that your specialist may not have the replacement parts ready, so you must purchase these. Some specialists may offer to go to the console repair store to get these parts for you for a small additional fee.  

Testing the game console after repair

After your hired repair specialist has applied the fixes, they can test the console. They can check that the game loads up and works, both controllers function and respond as they should, and the video, audio and internet connectivity work as expected. If any issues arise, your repair specialist repeats the diagnostic and repair process until the console works without any problems.

Deep Clean + Wall & Paint Touch-Ups (Kitchen, Bathroom, Walls, Lounge)

$350

Casey ACT, Australia

17th Oct 2025

Need detailed clean and light wall touch-ups around my house. Most areas just need a deep clean, but a few walls, skirting, and ceilings have minor marks or small paint touch-ups required. Kitchen: Owen. The kitchen needs a full deep clean inside and outside of the cupboards, especially around the stove and rangehood area where there’s some grease buildup. The splashback tiles, benchtops, and cupboard doors need a thorough wipe-down, including the handles, hinges, and corners. ⸻ Bathroom & Laundry: Both the shower and bathtub areas need detailed scrubbing to remove soap scum and any light mould from tiles and grout. The vanity, sink, and tapware should be cleaned and polished, along with the window sill and laundry sink area. The silicone edges and corners need a bit of attention to refresh their look. ⸻ Walls & Doors: There are several areas with scuff marks, fingerprints, and small scratches that need cleaning or a light touch-up with paint. Some walls have minor nail holes that can be filled and painted over. Door frames and switches also need a quick wipe to remove marks and dust. ⸻ Windows & Fixtures: Windows need an interior clean, including the frames and tracks. Light fixtures and ceiling areas should be wiped down to remove any cobwebs or marks. Blinds and skirting boards can also use a gentle clean to bring everything back to a tidy finish. ⸻ Lounge & Bedroom: The sofa has some light stains on the armrests that need spot cleaning, and the rug should be vacuumed or lightly cleaned. There are a few wall marks and nail holes in the bedroom and hallway that need patching or painting. Overall, the goal is to make these areas look clean and refreshed.
