I do component-level electronics repair in Portland and have for fifteen years. Most shops diagnose by swapping boards; I work with a hot air station and a microscope, which means the answer is often cheaper than the one you were given. Where I help most: a laptop that a store quoted a full logic board for, water damage that somebody has declared terminal, or a device with data on it that nobody has tried to recover before replacing the board. There is almost always a step between working and landfill, and it is usually a connector, a blown capacitor or a corroded trace. I work evenings because this is also my day job and because the people who call me are usually weighing a quote they got that afternoon. Send me photographs of the board under good light before the session and we will spend the time on the answer instead of the setup.
