Walt’s Tv Service Center

I have had Walt’s perform two repair jobs for me now and they have done a great job for me. They do not work on all types of electronics but, that is OK. It would be impossible for any shop to work on any and all types of electronics and Walt’s specializes in TVs and some audio electronics. I would just suggest you consider calling them in advance of taking in your item to make sure it is something they can work on. If they can work on it, I am sure they will do a good job for you.

Walt’s TV Repair has been a staple in the east bay for years, recently I had to take my 42 inch color TV in for repair after I thought the sound went out. When I called them and told them about the issues I was having they told me to disconnect my cable line and unplug the TV because it might be my Cable provider ATT. After I call myself making these steps I still did not have any sound and took my tv In for repair. The owner started working on my tv immediately and after clicking on several buttons the sound came on. When I offered to pay him for his service he refused and told me to contact ATT and get a new cable box. Walt continues to be a community gem and I will forever be a patron of there services.

Walt’s should be renamed Honest Mike’s. Great that a small shop like this exists in the midst of Bay Area chain stores and their affiliated repair centers.
Pleasant and efficient and super-​smart and… here’s that word again… HONEST!!! My 40 inch flat screen telly stopped working. I know nothing about TVs, and don’t even like to look at or think about their technical technical aspects. Mike unloaded the TV from my car trunk, took it inside, asked a few questions, tried out a DVD, did some other stuff, and told me the TV was fine – i just had needed to unplug, then plug it in, to reset it.
He could have kept the TV and charged a fortune – how would i have known that there was nothing wrong? Instead, he checked it in 15 minutes, told me what the problem was, and didn’t charge anything.
Of course, i gave him a little something for his valuable time, but just about had to force him to take it.
Thank you to Mike and the very lovely lady – maybe his wife? – who is at the shop. You restore my faith in people!

Super affordable and knowledgable for repairs, plus very friendly service. They even helped load my husband’s massive TV in and out of the car. 5 stars!

Walt’s TV service Center is AWSOME!!!
I looked up what it would cost to replace and instead went on the hunt for a fair TV repair shop. Walt’s had the highest recommendation and rating so I thought I’d give them a try.
I called and spoke to Mike about my LG 47 inch TV that died. He told me to bring it in and he would see what was wrong and call me with an estimate. I dropped off the TV. I was worried how I was going to get it into the store, being so heavy an awkward but Mike had a handy cart and he came out to the car and brought it into the store. He called me with the estimate just like he said he would, quoted me an inexpensive quote and said it would take 1 – 2 days to repair. He called when the repair was done. I came to pick it up. He demonstrated that it was fixed, I paid the exact estimate price and have my TV back in its spot and watched TV that same night!
I am thrilled with the service and price. Mike and Mandy were professional and nice to work with!
I give them the highest recommendation for your TV repair!
Thank you Mike and Mandy!

I went to take my son tv to repair at walts tv repair, where they did a great job. They didnt over price me like other places. There service was great and on time as promised when it will be repair. It was our first time going there and will continue to take any tv repairs I will need, as well customers service was friendly. I’m glad to have been there I would recommend to go if need tv repair.

I can’t believe I never wrote a review on this gem. My buddy came in today and tried to buy a TV I have sitting in my warehouse and I sent him the info from Unilocal and realized I needed to do them solid like they have done me for the past 10 years. I stumbled onto Walts a long time ago when a customer gave me a TV and said that it was only $ 200 fix from working again. Reluctant to leave this TV, I hoped it true and drove it to Walts because I had seen a add I think in a penny saver. When I went in, it looked like a mad mans electronic explosion, but was greeted and told what they could do, and signs a receipt stating who I was, what I was dropping off, and they would get back to me to give me an estimate. By the next day they gave me the problem and part I needed, and I approved the repair. Within a day or two I received a follow up call that gave me the good news… My television was ready. Upon my arrival, I also noticed they had a matching set, used, that they had fixed and had for resale… So I bought it. Well, to cut to the chase, I never had a problem with either set, sold them both down the road and actually made money, and since then I have referred over 10 people there who have had their sets repaired, and also purchased other sets Walts had refurbished. I would recommend this company to anyone looking to have a television repaired, or if you wanted to buy a used television. Their service is straight to the point, and they will always tell you if it’s worth it or not to fix whatever you bring in before you pay the money. This place is definitely a 5 star joint, and I would have no doubts that you would feel the same.

Magnificent! I was going to throw away my TV, you know recycle it. Anyway my father-​in-​law convinced me to go ahead and check the spot out. I’m glad I did! They were inexpensive, they bought the parts in advance to fix my TV and it was ready for payment and pick up today. They even tested out the television to show me that it worked. I was very impressed.

Great service. Fast and reasonable. Dropped off our 50 inch Panasonic with power issues around 10:15 am expecting to hear back in a few days. Recvd a call at noon that it was ready and would cost les than $ 100 to fix. This was inspire of a number of repairs. Definitely a greAt vale and service

Mike fixed TV in few days and low price we highly recomended this repare shop!

Great knowledge and quick turn around at a fair price. They had told us it would be ready next week, but called us on New Years Eve to pick it up.

Our 32-​inch Toshiba had developed 3−½ inches of horizontal lines across the top of the screen. Finally fed up with the distraction, we called Walt’s on June 1, 2009, were given an appointment that afternoon at 4:00 p.m. and the problem is solved! Mike, the owner, arrive precisely on time and has knowledge of electronics we can only guess about.
The problem was three extremely tiny transistors in a circuit board that measures approximately 9×10 inches. How he found them and then replaced same is a total mystery to us, but in 30 minutes he had our television picture looking as good as the day we bought it 3 years ago. Then he tested the screen and also made certain the audio worked as well. As a wise person said, «You pay for the knowledge the person has, not for the time.» Mike has the knowledge and we are greatly impressed. We whole-​heartedly recommend Walt’s TV Service Center to anyone with a television problem.
