Stick Drift Repair

Stick drift causes unwanted character or camera movement even when you are not touching the controller. The lasting fix is module replacement, not a clean, and we do it regularly on every major controller. See our dedicated pages for Switch Joy-Con drift repair and PS5 DualSense drift repair.

Scuf controller stick drift? We've got you covered. Our team handles premium custom controllers with care and expertise.

Our repair process includes a full inspection and replacement of the analog stick module so the controller reads true centre again. We also offer Hall effect stick modules as a longer-life option on Switch Joy-Cons and select controllers.

HDMI Port Replacement on PS5, Xbox, PS4, and Switch

A console that powers on but produces no picture on the TV is almost always an HDMI port problem. We do the same kind of board-level micro-soldering repair across all major consoles:

• PS5 HDMI port repair for no video, bent pins, or loose connections
• Xbox Series X and Series S HDMI repair
• PS4, PS4 Slim, and PS4 Pro HDMI repair
• Switch HDMI and dock repair, where the HDMI output is on the dock rather than the console

Supported Consoles

• PlayStation 4, PS4 Slim, PS4 Pro, PS5
• Xbox One, Xbox One S, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S and X
• Nintendo Switch, Switch OLED, and Switch Lite
• Select retro and classic consoles (inquire for availability)

Handheld PC Repair

The handheld PC category has grown quickly and we work on the major devices: the Steam Deck (LCD and OLED), the ROG Ally and Ally X, and the Legion Go and Legion Go S. The most common handheld repairs we see are thumbstick drift, USB-C charging port wear, screen damage, fan and thermal issues, and battery replacements on the older devices. All board-level repair is done on the same bench as our console work.

Xbox Repairs

We repair the Xbox Series X, Series S and the Xbox One family. The most common faults are a dead HDMI port (the console powers on but the TV shows nothing) and overheating (loud fan, shutdowns mid-game), followed by power faults, disc drives and controller drift. Everything we do on Xbox consoles is on our Xbox repair service.

Nintendo Switch Repairs

Switch repairs cover the original Switch, Switch OLED, and Switch Lite. The most common are Joy-Con drift, HDMI and dock issues (the HDMI output is on the dock, not the console), USB-C charging port wear, and screen replacement from drops or pressure damage.

Outside Ottawa? Mail Your Console In

We take consoles and handheld PCs by mail from anywhere in Canada. Call or send us a message first and we'll give you the shipping details. Pack the console well and ship it to us, and we diagnose it and send you a quote before any work. Once you approve, we repair it, test it and ship it back. A PS5 HDMI port replacement, for example, is $180 and usually takes 1 to 2 business days once the console arrives. See mail-in repair for how to pack and send it.
