Board-level repair for Washington, DC
We don't have a storefront in DC, and we won't pretend otherwise. WeFixed is one bench in Arlington, about five miles and one bridge across the Potomac from most of the District. If a shop already told you a board is dead, water-damaged, or "not worth fixing," that's usually the kind of thing we look at under a microscope. For DC customers it's a short drive over Key Bridge into Rosslyn, or a mail-in box if you'd rather not deal with traffic.
From Georgetown, our shop is basically the next thing across Key Bridge — under fifteen minutes without traffic. From the rest of NW, NE, SE, and SW you're looking at the Roosevelt Bridge or I-66, roughly four to six miles depending on where you start.
If a trip across the river isn't worth it for one device, mail it in. We send a prepaid label, you ship the device, and we email a written quote after the $65 diagnostic before anyone touches a soldering iron.
Two ways to reach us
- Mail-in with a tracked label — diagnosis in writing before any work
- Or drive to our Arlington bench: ≈ 4–6 miles · 12–25 min via Key Bridge or Roosevelt Bridge to our Arlington bench
One bench. Washington drops in, the country mails in.
The hardest board-level and microsoldering cases all land on the same Arlington bench — whether they walk through the door or arrive by mail from across the US.
How repair works if you're in DC
Drive it over. Most of DC reaches us through Rosslyn — Georgetown crosses Key Bridge, downtown and the quadrants take the Roosevelt Bridge or I-66 west. We're on Washington Blvd in Arlington near Clarendon, a short hop past the bridge, not a trek out to the suburbs.
Or mail it in. No DC storefront means no reason to fight Beltway traffic for a phone. We send a prepaid, insured label; you drop it at any USPS, UPS, or FedEx counter in the District. Same diagnostic, same warranty as a walk-in.
Heads-up on the law: DC, like neighboring Virginia and Maryland, has no enacted electronics right-to-repair law as of 2026 — those rules live in states like California, Colorado, Minnesota, New York, and Oregon. That doesn't change what we do; independent board repair is legal everywhere. It just means manufacturers aren't required to hand us parts or schematics, so on newer devices some fixes depend on what's actually available.

What we fix for Washington
I'm in DC with no car. How do I get my device to you?
Mail-in. We email you a prepaid shipping label, you pack the device and hand it to any USPS, UPS, or FedEx location in the District. We diagnose it, send a written quote, and ship it back repaired. You never have to cross the river.
What's the fastest drive from DC to your shop?
From Georgetown it's across Key Bridge into Rosslyn, then a couple of minutes down Washington Blvd — usually under fifteen minutes. From downtown, Capitol Hill, or the rest of NW, the Roosevelt Bridge or I-66 puts you here in fifteen to twenty-five depending on traffic. We're roughly four to six miles from most DC addresses.
Why does DC have to come to Arlington — why no DC location?
We're a single specialized bench, not a chain. One lab with one set of microscopes and rework stations does better, more honest work than three thinly-staffed counters. Keeping it to Arlington is also why we can keep the diagnostic at $65 instead of padding it to cover extra storefronts.
Does DC's right-to-repair status affect my repair?
Not the repair itself. As of 2026 DC hasn't passed an electronics right-to-repair law, but board-level repair is fully legal and that's what we do. The practical effect is only on supply: for some recent models, manufacturers aren't obligated to release genuine parts or schematics, so we'll tell you upfront if a particular fix is limited by what we can source.
How long does a mail-in repair take?
Plan on shipping time each way plus our bench time. We run the $65 diagnostic and email a quote within a couple of business days of the box arriving; once you approve, most board-level jobs finish in a few days. If we're waiting on an OEM or OLED part, we'll tell you the realistic timeline before you commit.
What's the warranty on a part you install?
One year on genuine OEM parts and OLED screens. Aftermarket parts carry a one-month warranty — we only use them when you ask us to keep cost down, and we'll always tell you which kind is going in before we install it.
