Kalispell & the Flathead Valley — local drop-off by appointment, or mail it in.
Console Repair in Kalispell, MT — a Board-Level Bench in the Flathead Valley
Iron Point Repair’s micro-soldering bench sits right here in the Flathead Valley. If your PS5 shows no signal, your Xbox’s HDMI port is crushed, or your Switch only charges at an angle, you don’t have to settle for a phone-repair counter or ship your console out of state. Drop-off is by appointment (no storefront), or use the same mail-in flow customers in all 50 states use. Free diagnosis, photo proof before you pay a repair balance, and a 90-day warranty on the work.

What we repair for the Flathead Valley
Every repair below is board-level work — a new port or IC soldered onto your existing motherboard under a microscope, not a board swap that wipes your console’s identity. And every price is published up front:
- PS5 HDMI port repair — $189 (intro), PS5 Pro included, or HDMI + retimer IC repair for $239 when the port isn’t the whole story.
- Xbox Series X/S HDMI repair — $189 (intro), covering broken ports and no-signal failures.
- Nintendo Switch USB-C charge port replacement — $129 flat for Switch, Lite, and OLED. Board-level Switch port work is one of the repairs valley shops most often decline — here it’s a core service.
- Board-level micro-soldering — quote-based component work with a $50 diagnostic credit applied to the repair.
A local bench, not a shipping label to another state
Most repair counters in Kalispell and Whitefish are phone-first: screens and batteries all day, with console board work sent out, quoted as a board swap, or politely declined. A board swap costs more — and on a PS5 it can strand your disc-drive pairing.
This bench does one thing: board-level console repair. Because it’s in the valley, “mail-in” for you can just mean a short drive. Request online, get approved, and we’ll arrange a drop-off time in Kalispell. Whitefish, Columbia Falls, Evergreen, Bigfork, Lakeside, Somers — you’re all close enough that handing the console over usually beats postage.

Turnaround & warranty
Bench time for the common fixes usually runs two to three business days once your console and deposit are in hand. Local drop-offs skip shipping on both ends, so a Kalispell console is often back in your hands the same week. Every repair carries a 90-day warranty, diagnosis is always free, and if we’re mailing it back, return shipping is on us. Before any repair balance is due, you see photos of your own board — what failed, and what was replaced.
Students and families across the valley
Between FVCC, the high schools, and every household with a Switch riding in a backpack, the Flathead breaks a lot of USB-C ports. A $129 port replacement is the difference between a repair and a $300 replacement console — and your saved games never leave the building.
Student-owned and operated — MSU students get 10% off with a .edu email — mention it in your repair request.
Kalispell console repair FAQ
Do you have a storefront in Kalispell?
No — Iron Point Repair is a one-person specialist bench, not a retail counter. Local drop-off and pickup are by appointment: submit a repair request first, and once you’re approved we’ll arrange a time and place in Kalispell. No storefront overhead is also part of why the prices stay flat and published.
Can I hand you my console instead of mailing it?
Yes. Start the same online request, and when we approve it, mention you’re local — we’ll set up a drop-off instead of shipping. Whitefish, Columbia Falls, Evergreen, Bigfork, Lakeside: all easy.
What does a repair cost?
The common fixes are flat-priced up front: $189 for a PS5 HDMI port (intro), $189 for Xbox Series X/S HDMI (intro), $129 for a Switch USB-C port, and $239 when a PS5 needs the retimer IC as well. Anything else is quote-based after a free diagnosis, with a $50 credit toward the repair.
How fast can it be done?
Typically two to three business days on the bench. With a local drop-off there’s no shipping on either end, so same-week is common for the standard port repairs. We never promise same-day — good solder work doesn’t get rushed.
Do you fix Nintendo Switch charge ports?
Yes — at the board level, with a new port soldered onto your existing motherboard. It’s one of the repairs local phone-repair counters most often decline or outsource; here it’s a core service at $129 flat, covering Switch, Lite, and OLED.
Keep it in the valley.
Free diagnosis, a 90-day warranty, photo proof before you pay — and the bench is a short drive away, not a shipping zone away.
