It is hard to find an electronic shop that you can trust because they can tell you anything is wrong and you have no way of knowing if that is correct. Ableman TV found a small chip that was shorted and actully fixed it at a descent price saving me 50 bucks over having to buy a new board. Any savings today is very much appreciated and I will always use him

I have been utilizing Rex's services ever since we moved to Vancouver. He has always given me the inside story on everything, been reasonable in his charges and perhaps most importantly, when he fixes something, it stays fixed. He's fixed tvs, vcrs, dvd players, and he currently has my antique AM tube radio, which finally failed a few years ago. About five years ago, I brought him my vintage Concept tuner/amplifier. I had used it since I bought it in 1978. An outstanding electronic instrument, it finally needed some major wo... read more

Couldn't be happier! Ableman was recommended to us by a trusted friend. When our TV bulb burnt out and the replacement part from Sears didn't work we brought the old bulb, the new bulb, and the TV in to figure out what wasn't working. They were respectful and the service was outstanding. They took the time to check it out while we waited and showed us how to prolong the life of our TV. We actually had to convince them to accept more money than they wanted to charge us!!!

Fantastic Repair facility! – I have a 18 month old 37 inch samsung LCD. The picture is gone, but I have sound. I looked at many similar complaints on the web and am a bit of a fix it guy. I narrowed it down to a diode on the power supply board. I called this place and they 1) confirmed there was a known issue with this diode on this board, 2) told me the had the diode in stock, 3) installed the diode for me, and 4) charged me a very reasonable price! The person (assistant) I first spoke with is Gordon. The owner, and the per... read more

Excellent TV Repair and Customer Service – Our 2 1/2 year old LG 42" TV was fine when turned off then was dead when we tried to turn it back on a few hours later--it had sound but no picture. My daughter in-law called all over to try to get some idea of what the problem could be along with information on approximate repair costs (a $ range) and turn around time. Tom at Ableman TV was the only person that would give her his time to explain what he thought it might be and an approximate cost and turn around time. So we took ou... read more

Very Responsive and Helpful – Our five year old SONY TV decided to quit on us one evening and I assumed it would require a repair tech to fix it. Looking at ratings and feedback, I first went to another shop, but after almost 24 hours with no response, decided to try Ableman. My call was picked up by a technician who after listening, suggested it sounded like a lamp issue and advised me that is typically something an owner can replace. He patiently provided detailed guidance as to how to remove the assembly, which I did and ... read more

Honest, Go Out of Their Way Service – Our Samsung TV lamp died on a Sunday. Why did it have to be on a Sunday? We found Ableman TV & Electronics Service on Bing. The website listed the hours of operation Monday through Saturday. Next to Sunday, it read "Call for Service." My husband was skeptical; a burnt out bulb could hardly be considered an emergency - except when you have a three year old and a four year old - then it IS an emergency. When we called, Rex offered to go to the store, make sure he had the right bulb in stoc... read more

Great local business – I found them on google, called. They said to come in. I went in with my Samsug sound bar, which had stopped working a year ago. Two men helped me, both friendly. One contacted Samsung on the internet. The other hooked up the sound bar. and found that the optical cable connectig it to the TV was broken. He replaced it with one that worked. The sound bar worked just fine. They did not charge for service. They sold me a new optical cable for $10. I was on my way after just a few minutes. Excellent!
