Advanced TV Service

I first called another TV repair service that was highly rated on Unilocal.Left a message, did not get a call back, and called again, managing finally to speak to someone. I was told we’d get a call back about a time for a service call but it never came. I next called Dave at Advanced TV Service. What can I say? Within two days our Panasonic plasma TV was fixed and ready to go! Dave is courteous, efficient, and very knowledgable. As soon as I described the symptoms, he knew what questions to ask and pinpointed the problem. His charges were entirely reasonable, too. Glad to be back watching the Patriots on our large screen TV instead of a small screen! I recommend this business very highly!

My main TV (a 46 inch LCD) suddenly stopped turning on properly after 6 years of use, and Microcenter sent me over to Dave, since Microcenter doesn’t repair TVs/​monitors. I was really worried that it was dead for good, which was terrible since this thing still costs a few grand (it wasn’t a standard consumer-​grade TV you’ll find at a normal store), and I didn’t want to lose it.
Dave ran a diagnostic, felt like it was repairable, ordered the parts, and got the work done! He was very easy to deal with, and when I got the TV back, it worked just like new again!
Price was completely reasonable, as was the time it takes.
If you have a good TV go bad, definitely have Dave run the diagnostic and at least take a look at it. It will be in good hands.

Dave was great to work with and I would highly recommend him. He responded quickly, showed up on time, did thorough work and was extremely easy to deal with.

Dave returned my call promptly, and provided great service repairing my Panasonic plasma TV. Everything is working great and I’d surely return to Dave should I need to in the future.

Trying to get a good deal, I bid on and won a TV off Ebay. It seemed to work perfectly fine for about a week, but then I started getting a weird flicker as well as patterns of random colors on the screen.
I called David and he came by to take a look. He normally charges $ 40 to come over and make a diagnosis. While at my house, he was very polite and seemed knowledgeable in his craft. He said something about my controller board cables being dirty. He opened the TV and cleaned the two cables with rubbing alcohol, which seemed to fix the problem. He charged me a total of $ 100 to clean the cables and said if that doesn’t fix the problem, it is the controller board itself. He said that he would come back and install the board for no additional charge (just the cost of the board) since I just paid him $ 100.
A few days later, I started to have the same issue as before. I called David, but got his voicemail every time. Over the course of the next two weeks, I left him several messages explaining the situation and asking if he could find the time to come back and try again. He never got back to me. After a few weeks went by, I called him on my girlfriend’s phone and he picked up almost immediately. I told him who I was and he said he was «still checking into it», that he «hadn’t forgotten» and that he would call me back in the next day or two. I have since called him back on several occasions and he has not picked up. It has been 6 weeks now and I am going to use a different service – unfortunately for me, I was stiffed the $ 100.
He seemed knowledgeable enough I suppose, but there isn’t much customer service on his end. I essentially gave him $ 100 and my TV is just as broken as it was before he arrived. He wouldn’t answer my calls and never tried to communicate back.

As good as it gets indeed. David was able to work around my schedule and come to my home to assess the damage on my TV. He always promptly responded to my phone calls and emails with questions I had even before he saw the TV. I would highly recommend Advanced TV Service and will be using him in the future. Hopefully i wont ever have to! No offense, David!

Great service and prices! Came and picked up my large 10 year old TV/​DVD/​VCR on a Tuesday, with its non-​functioning VCR. Returned it on Wednesday, completely working. Total charge INCLUDING deliver — $ 150. How can you beat that? And friendly besides. Way t’ go David!

Early generation Panasonic 55″, Dave responded immediately to my voicemail, picked up the set and returned it promptly. He was very honest about potential options, stating he’d do what he could but any more extensive repair would likely mean buying a new set. I very much appreciated his prompt attention and integrity. The set is working at this point and for a very fair cost. Thanks, Dave!

I had an issue with the audio on my LG flat screen TV. I called David and he called me back within seconds. He is extremely professional, punctual, and experienced. He knew exactly what the problem was and tackled it within a half hour. He gave me a very reasonable quote (less than 200 $). I would call Dave in a second regarding any other TV problems. Helpful, friendly, and timely! Great service.
