Description of Work: I called this TV repair shop because they offered a $29.50 service call (most companies charge an average of $75 to come out and take the tv back to the shop for repair). (95% of all tv repairs are done in the shop since no one can forsee what parts are needed to take with them). Anyway, the owner comes out and I explained that my $2,600 50" plasma tv simply lost power and that this same scenario occurred a few years back and was repaired for less than $100. So...after he simply looks at the back of the tv he of course says he will need to take it back to the shop and that he charges $40 for a round trip repair...and, so much for the $29.50 special = very deceiving! Now, he wants $310 for a (30 day warranty repair) or, $350 for a one year warranty repair. I of course reminded him of the previous repair cost and that he was three (3) times that amount and so he dropped the price $20. When people easily drop a price it's usually because they build in excessive amount of profit. I did want my tv back in time for Super Bowl and if not for that fact I was ready to have him bring the tv back and take my business elsewhere. I feel I was taken probably because it was an expensive tv and therefore an expensive repair price for something that was done previously for less than $100. | |

Description of Work: We have 62" projection tv which we've had for 15 years. The tv suddenly went red and blurry. They came and had to take with them for service. They explained what happened and that it could be fixed and last another 15 years. They kept us posted as to the status as the parts had to be ordered. Very professional,courteous. Would definitely use in the future.

Description of Work: Took the 55" TV in Wed, 18-Nov-15. Called a week later and was told would be called back same day: no return call. Was called 30-Nov with quote - parts needed to be ordered - would take about a week. 10-Dec-15 was called that parts were being delivered and TV would be ready Fri or Sat (11 or 12-Dec). Arranged for Sat pickup - and it was all finished and ready when I arrived to pick it up. I feel like it took too long from start to finish BUT really don't know how long the parts took to arrive. So maybe only the 1st 12-days were the 'too long' part to get the tests done and receive the quote. Certainly the folks at the shop seemed fully competent and professional in their approach.

I am sorry for the misunderstanding. From the description of your problem, I mentioned for you to call your cable provider as it was a cable issue. This saved you from us having to come out and charge 29.50 for the visit. We sincerely apologize for the confusion.

Description of Work: My HD flat screen TV was losing its picture by getting dim then blacking out.I had a coupon that I applied to the cost of repair. After setting up an appointment,the technician to pick up my TV was 2 hours late and I needed to contact them to inquire about the delays. When they arrived, the pricing was increased - a pick up and delivery fee as well as the diagnosis fee. Then I was informed that a part had to ordered, so I needed to drive to the shop to pick a loaner myself or wait for another lengthy delivery schedule. All of this was done by my initiating follow up calls.Then the repair price was increased for a one year warranty which they rationalized due to the lack of reliability for television manufacturing now in China.I paid the extra not wanting the expensive repair work to falter. So far the repair is holding up.

Description of Work: Was scheduled for service on Jan. 26th and told they were on their way. Called them after 1hr. and 10 min. and was told they were tied up on another job because of Super Bowl weekend and I would have to reschedule. Why would they say they were on their way? They were able to come to my home late on Jan. 29th only to be told it would cost me $29.50 for the service call but nothing could be done until my TV would have to have a diagnostic done for $40.00. On Feb. 10th, 11 days later, I called and was put on hold only to be told it wasn't repairable and they had TVs for sale at their establishment. Why wasn't I called prior before I had to call after 11 days? Maybe they need more service help and call the customer with the results. Not pleased with their service and response time.

Description of Work: Troubleshot a Samsung plasma TV. Explained PC boards as he worked. He gave me a discount on board problems with a 2nd Samsung TV. He knew the layout of Samsung TV's and their typical problems. I will definitely call Clearwater TV Service first on any TV problems.

We have been looking for a reputable TV repair shop for some time. We called other repair shops and got outrageous estimates to even look at our TV. Larry at Clearwater TV was very professional - gave me the option to bring my TV in for a free estimate or they would come to my house for a small fee to diagnose. They came out to my home, told me what they thought the issue was and took it back to the shop for a final diagnoses. They called two days later, as estimated by Larry, gave me the diagnoses and how much it would be to repair. Larry also advised that there would be a one year warranty on the repairs. One week later, we got our TV back - the repairs were exactly what they estimated. Larry and Lee set the TV back up, installing all of our other equipment to the TV and tested all aspects. Lee took the time to set up the options and they made sure that everything was working properly, my settings were as we desired and even the remote was working correctly. The TV works great. We received a follow up call a week later to ensure we were satisfied with the repair. I have recommended this company to family and will use them again for repairs.
Description of Work: Pick up, diagnose and repair 42" HD TV.

Description of Work: Only had my TV for just over a year and it died. Called for service and they were able to come out the same day but I had a prior comittment so we arranged for them to come out the next day. They were unable to fix the TV (a 60" LG Plasma on the wall) in the home and had to take the TV to confirm it could be repaired. They called the next morning with an estimate, which seemed a bit high, but anything would have seemed too much having just paid $1000 for the TV a year earlier. Took aout a week for them torepair and deliver the TV. I am very particular about some things and they remounted the TV and reconnected everything taking care to neatly conceal all the wiring as it was prior to them removing the TV. When I paid I as told that I had a 1 year warranty on the parts/work they did.

He said he couldn't fix it in the house, so he took it with him. He took a very long time, I had to call him to ask about the TV. When he brought it back it was was working fine, but next morning the it would not turn on. He came back to pick up the television up a second time. He had the TV quite while, I stopped in and the TV was working fine. When he brought the TV to the home the TV was working. The same problem had the next day, and the TV was not fixed. It still has the same problem. Then when I called him back, he tried to sell me used TV. This has been going on since April. I feel like he took advantage of us.

Unfortunately our technicians were unable to recreate the issues as stated by the customer. The TV was repaired after our initial service and ran for days, without incident, in our shop. We make every effort to repair and redeliver to our customers in a timely manner and sympathize with our customers, as we know it can feel like an eternity without your television.
