Our Specializations
The Wimbledon branch is our main technical hub, handling the most complex repairs
Motherboard Repair
We diagnose and repair damaged components on laptop, phone and tablet motherboards when others say it’s impossible. Our specialists can replace BGA chips, fix power circuits, and repair damaged traces at component level.
Precision Microsoldering
Using high-powered microscopes and specialized equipment, we perform intricate repairs on microscopic components that require extreme precision. This allows us to fix issues that standard repair shops cannot address.
Professional Data Recovery
Our advanced data recovery lab is equipped with professional tools like PC3000 and DeepSpar to recover data from failed drives, corrupted SSDs, and water-damaged devices. We maintain a donor drive library for hardware-level recovery.
Liquid Damage Repair
Specialized in reviving water-damaged electronics through ultrasonic cleaning, component replacement, and circuit restoration. We can often recover devices that have been exposed to water, coffee, wine, or other liquids.
Microsoft Surface Repairs
We’re experts in repairing Microsoft Surface devices including screen replacements, battery issues, motherboard faults, and charging problems. Our technicians have extensive experience with these challenging-to-repair devices.
Advanced Diagnostics
Using thermal imaging cameras, advanced oscilloscopes, and specialized testing equipment to identify complex hardware issues that standard diagnostics miss. We find the root cause of intermittent problems.

Success Stories
Real repair challenges we’ve solved at our Wimbledon facility
MacBook Pro Water Damage
A customer spilled an entire cup of coffee on their MacBook Pro. After Apple declared it unrepairable, our team disassembled it completely, cleaned and treated corroded components, replaced damaged circuits, and restored it to full functionality.
Surface Pro Black Screen
A Microsoft Surface Pro 8 with a completely black screen but functioning touch response. We discovered a damaged eDP display controller on the motherboard. Through precision microsoldering, we replaced the tiny component and restored full display functionality.
Critical Business Data Recovery
A local business lost access to their external RAID array containing 5 years of financial records when multiple drives failed simultaneously. Using our PC3000 system and donor parts matching, we successfully recovered 100% of their critical data.
iPhone Audio IC Repair
An iPhone with the “no microphone” issue during calls – a common problem caused by audio IC failure. Our specialist performed precision BGA rework to replace the audio chip, restoring full call functionality without the need to replace the entire device.
Vintage Gaming Console Revival
A collector brought in a rare vintage gaming console with severe capacitor leakage damage. We meticulously replaced all damaged components, restored corroded traces on the motherboard, and brought this irreplaceable system back to life.
Professional Camera Motherboard
A professional photographer’s high-end DSLR camera stopped working just before an important shoot. We diagnosed a faulty power management IC, replaced it with precision microsoldering, and had the camera back in action within 24 hours.

What Our Customers Say
With over 1000 positive reviews across Google and Trustpilot
I was told by Apple my MacBook Pro was unrepairable due to water damage. Fixfactor’s Wimbledon team not only repaired it but saved all my data too. Their motherboard repair skills are exceptional! Couldn’t recommend them more highly.
After my Surface Pro wouldn’t turn on and Microsoft quoted me £600+ for a replacement, Fixfactor fixed the motherboard issue for less than half the price. The technician explained exactly what was wrong and had it working within 2 days. Excellent service!
I thought my data was gone forever when my external hard drive failed. Three other recovery services couldn’t help, but Fixfactor recovered 100% of my business files. Their data recovery specialists are absolute wizards! Worth every penny for the professional service.
I spilled an entire cup of coffee on my Asus gaming laptop. The Wimbledon team took it apart, cleaned every component, and replaced several damaged parts. Now it works perfectly again! Their liquid damage repair expertise is impressive. Thank you!
Outstanding service! My iPhone had a complex charging issue that Apple couldn’t diagnose. The microsoldeing specialist at Fixfactor identified a damaged component on the motherboard and fixed it the same day. Saved me from buying a new phone.
