95 Worcester St, Natick, MA 01760 · (508) 810-2002 · Mon–Fri 9AM–7PM · Sat 10AM–6PM

Allston-Brighton is the single easiest Boston neighborhood to reach us from: hop on I-90 W at the Cambridge St on-ramp in Allston — it's a 10-second merge — then a straight Mass Pike shot west to the Natick/Rt 9 exit and you're in our free parking lot at 95 Worcester St in about 25 minutes door-to-door. Parking in Allston and Brighton is legendarily bad: permit-zone streets, posted-overnight restrictions, and a near-zero chance of finding anything free within two blocks of Commonwealth Ave or Brighton Ave. We've got an open lot at the door, no permit required, no meter. The neighborhood has one of the densest concentrations of gamers in Massachusetts — Boston University students and alumni in Allston, families and young professionals in Brighton — but no dedicated console repair bench. General-electronics shops that accept consoles typically quote 3–5 business days; we're same-day on most repairs with board-level work, free diagnostics, a no-fix-no-fee guarantee, and a 6-month warranty on every repair. Common jobs from this zip include PS5 HDMI no-signal faults, Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 cracked screens and dead batteries, Joy-Con drift, Xbox overheating and disc-drive failures, and cracked phone screens. Not driving? Our mail-in repair covers all of Massachusetts — box it up, we diagnose free, call with a quote, fix it the day it arrives, and ship it back fast.

Worth the Mass Pike hop from Allston-Brighton
