A cracked or malfunctioning TV screen doesn’t always mean you need a brand‑new television. Mombasa Appliances offers professional television screen repair and replacement services that restore your favorite TV to clear, vibrant viewing at a fraction of the cost of buying a new set. With expertise across LED, LCD, QLED and other smart‑TV models, our technicians in Mombasa and along Mombasa Road can diagnose faults accurately, replace damaged panels, and tune your display so you get maximum picture quality from your existing hardware.
Common TV screen problems we fix
TV screens fail in several ways, and not every issue requires a full‑panel swap. Mombasa Appliances begins every job with a diagnostic check so you only pay for the work your set actually needs. Typical screen‑related problems we handle include:
-
Cracked or shattered front glass from falls or impact.
-
Half‑black, flickering, or rainbow‑colored screens caused by panel or T‑Con board faults.
-
Dead pixels, thin lines, or color blocks that appear even after software resets.
-
Backlight failure where the picture looks extremely dim or completely black while sound still works.
-
Burn‑in or ghosting on older or heavily used displays.
By identifying the exact root cause—whether it is just the backlight, the T‑Con board, or the full screen panel—we can give you an honest recommendation on whether repair or replacement is the more economical choice.
When to repair vs. replace the screen
Deciding between a screen repair and a full replacement depends on size, age, technology (LED, QLED, OLED), and the cost of spare parts in the local Mombasa market. As a rule of thumb:
-
Repair is usually best when the damage is cosmetic (small cracks without display distortion), the backlight or T‑Con board can be replaced cheaply, or the TV is relatively new and still under warranty.
-
Screen replacement makes sense when the liquid‑crystal panel is severely damaged, colors are distorted even at startup, or the set is a higher‑end model that would be expensive to replace outright.
-
Full TV replacement is recommended when repair costs exceed about 60–70% of the price of a similar new TV, or when the model is very old and spare parts are no longer available locally.
Mombasa Appliances always provides a transparent quote so you can compare the repair cost against buying a new TV and decide what works best for your budget.
How our screen replacement process works
Our TV screen repair and replacement service follows a structured workflow to protect your device and ensure a clean result:
-
Fault diagnosis – A technician inspects your TV on‑site or at our Mombasa workshop, testing the panel, backlight, T‑Con board, and power supply.
-
Cost quotation – You receive a detailed quote showing whether simple repairs (like backlight or board replacement) will suffice or if a full screen panel change is necessary.
-
Genuine‑compatible panel sourcing – We source panels that match your TV’s size, resolution, and technology (LED, QLED, etc.), balancing quality and cost.
-
Safe disassembly and panel replacement – The TV is carefully opened, the old panel removed, and the new panel installed with attention to ribbon cables, connectors, and alignment.
-
Calibration and testing – After assembly, we run color, contrast, and brightness tests, ensuring the picture quality meets factory‑like standards.
-
Final check and delivery – The TV is cleaned, ports checked, and either delivered back to you or handed over if you brought it in‑person.
Throughout this process, we use anti‑static tools and proper handling techniques to avoid damaging other components during the screen work.
