About the workshop
Bringing old hardware back to life
It started with a broken SNES in the attic and a bad idea about fixing it. Five years later, close to 120 devices have passed through the workshop — from NES cartridges to amplifiers, home computers and whole office networks. For the past year I have worked on my own, and I run the IT for four companies.
I use original or equivalent components, photograph every step, and never start a repair before you have approved the quote.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Not finding your answer? Call me — I answer the phone too.
How much does diagnostics cost?
Diagnostics costs 20 € and is deducted from the repair price if you go ahead. If you decline, you only pay for the diagnostics.
How long does a repair take?
Cleaning and servicing — 2 to 4 days. Component-level repair — 5 to 10 days. Full restoration — 3 weeks and up. An IT callout, on site or remote, usually fits inside the day.
Is there a warranty?
6 months on the work performed and the parts fitted. It does not cover new physical damage or work done by another shop.
Can I ship the device to you?
Yes. Send it by courier to the address in the Contact section. Pack it well and include a note with your name and phone — the card number is issued on arrival.
What parts do you use?
Original parts when they are available, quality equivalents when they are not. I always tell you which one is going into your device beforehand.
How do I pay?
Cash or card on site, or bank transfer. You pay on collection, after you have seen the device working.
Will I lose my saved games and data?
No. If the device has internal memory or a card, I do not touch it without your explicit permission. Back it up before you bring the device in.
What if it cannot be fixed?
If the device cannot be repaired, you pay only for the diagnostics and get everything back, disassembled parts included.
