For larger electronic items such as your LED TV, retailers usually offer an extended warranty (15% of the item’s cost). Users have very little to worry when there’s an issue with their TV as long as the warranty still applies, however what should be done if it doesn’t?

On average, TV repair costs start at about $500 but pricing can increase according to the type of TV being repaired. Why? The factors that play a large role in determining the cost of TV repairs are;

Ø  The damage, issue or fault with the TV

Ø  The TV model

This is why when looking for a TV repair service; users should try to find a TV repair service that offers the replacement parts of most TV models.

The Most Common Problem with LCD TVs

Repairing any television set can quickly become time intensive, especially if the issue with the electronic device is complicated. With LCD TVs however, the most common issue are display problems as with more usage, the screen tends to discolor and burn out.

There’re few LCD TV repair companies in Rockland County that also offer large LCD, LED and Plasma screen replacement services, Rockland County Computer Repair being one of them.

An LCD TV with No Warranty Can Prove Costly To Repair

The regular LCD TV is designed by manufacturers to last about 40,000 viewing hours. On average,  that amounts to at least 20 years of TV viewing time but there’s no knowing when the screen of your TV busts out. On the other hand, there’s absolutely no guarantee that repairs done while the item was under warranty will bring satisfaction. According to a survey, conducted by Consumer Reports it was found out that electronic items not under extended warranty have the same certainty of repair guarantee as items that still have their warranty intact. In fact, repairs carried out on TVs with a warranty were most likely to be done incorrectly the first time around.

Based on what the problem with the TV is, some professional repair services will charge a flat rate as opposed to making an estimate after the job is done. There’re still other companies that charge according to the labor and replacement parts that was out in the TV.

The best way to go about when looking at major repair charges is to spend 50% of what was originally paid for the new TV set. If repair costs are amounting to more, then look for another repair service.
