Questions

What kind of machines do you work on?

I offer repair for all solid state pinball machines from 1977 – Current (that means it must have a digital score display). I support Bally, Williams, Stern, Gottlieb, Premiere, Allied Leisure, and more.

What if I don’t know what my machine needs?

No worries. Diagnosing issues is my specialty. I’ll test your game, find what is broken and make suggestions for repairs. I bring the most commonly needed parts with me to repair your machine on the first visit. However I may need to order parts and return for a second visit to finish your repair.

How do you charge?

I charge $175 per hour with a one hour minimum plus a travel charge of $75 to $150 depending on your location plus any parts needed. I work quickly and efficiently to minimize my client’s time and total costs.

Do you LED Conversion?

YES! Lighting is one of my favorite things to do. There have been so many advancements in LED lighting that will make your machine look better, run cooler, and be easier on your circuitry. In addition I offer new long lasting / washable and colorful silicone rubber rings to upgrade the feel and look of your game.

How does billing work?

I prepare and send an invoice to you via email before I leave. Once you’ve reviewed the invoice payment can be made through the link in the email using Visa, MC, Discover. You will receive a confirmation and receipt by email.

Do you work on circuit boards and wiring?

Yes. I can diagnose and repair board components as well as install new circuit boards, electronics, displays, and more. Often times issues such as a locked on solenoid caused by a shorted transistor can repair on the spot. Other times I may need to take your circuit board back to my shop for repair.
