The turnaround time will vary. We diagnose devices in the order that they're booked in with us. Once a quote is approved and parts are ordered, devices are repaired on a 1st in, 1st out basis - meaning once the spares have arrived from the supplier, the first device in the queue whose spares have arrived will have the work order completed.

Micro Fix offers 3 levels of maintenance (repair) to our clients as defined below:

  • Level 1 - The first level maintenance corresponds to the simple interventions, necessary & realized on easily accessible elements. These operations do not require the dismantling of the equipment (e.g. operating system re-installation without user data)
  • Level 2 - The second level maintenance corresponds to the less complex interventions. The replacement of parts during these operations do not require the global dismantling of the equipment concerned (e.g. replacing the Blu-Ray laser of a game console)
  • Level 3 - The third level maintenance corresponds to interventions considered as complex. These operations include diagnosis and identification of a more intricate failure of the equipment concerned (e.g. iPhone not turning on)
  • Level 4 & 5 maintenance are either not required for repair of common faults of the electronics booked in by our client's (and would in most cases be deemed BER for the general public) or are reserved for devices that need refurbishment for resale 

Started in the electronic repair industry back in 2008 so have a wealth of experience in this space. Also have electronic engineers and technician's with a keen eye for detail and good knowledge to tackle a plethora of faults on the device types we service
