5 Best TV Repair Services in Chicago (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Talise Sterling, Goods and Shopping · ✓ Data verified August 2026 · 8 min read

A dead backlight or a cracked screen doesn't always mean the TV is finished, but finding real TV repair services in Chicago among mounting and general electronics shops takes some sorting. The businesses here have logged over 1,300 Google reviews between them, and four sit at 4.7 stars or higher, so the real question is whether you need mounting, repair, or a broader electronics fix.

Short answer: HDInstalls TV Installation Chicago leads on volume with 426 reviews at a perfect 5.0, though it specializes in mounting and setup rather than internal repairs. For actual TV repair, Ben's TV Repair Service (4.7, 246 reviews) has over 50 years of hands-on experience fixing boards and backlights, and Five Star Electronics (4.7, 240 reviews) covers repairs alongside antenna and DirecTV work.

5 Best TV Repair Services in Chicago (2026)

HDInstalls TV Installation Chicago Co.

5.0426 Google reviews

HDInstalls TV Installation Chicago Co. is an audio-visual installation company covering TV wall mounting, home theater and security camera setup rather than internal television repair. Its site lists a flat $99.95 rate for standard TV wall mounting with optional in-wall wiring concealment, and it's the most-reviewed business on this list, though its focus is installation rather than fixing a broken screen or board.

What people praise

Fast response, including same-day installation in some cases
Technicians described as detail-oriented, even cleaning the TV screen and console after install
Lifetime warranty on installations
Handles complex setups like hidden wiring and surround sound

Worth knowing

Not a repair specialist; if your TV itself is broken (not the mount), you'll need one of the dedicated repair shops below

Our take: The most-reviewed and highest-rated business on this list, but it's important to know it's a mounting and installation specialist, not a TV repair shop. Go here for setup, not for a broken screen.

Chicago Appliance Repair Doctor

5.0201 Google reviews

Chicago Appliance Repair Doctor is a home appliance repair company covering refrigerators, ovens, washers, dryers and HVAC systems across Chicago and the suburbs. Its Google listing and reviews focus entirely on major appliance repair rather than televisions, so despite its strong rating it's not a fit if the job you need is TV-specific.

What people praise

Perfect rating on nearly every review collected
Clear, upfront pricing before repairs begin, with no hidden fees
Fast turnaround, often same-day for common appliance issues
Technicians praised for explaining exactly what's wrong and why

Worth knowing

This business repairs household appliances, not televisions; its inclusion in a TV repair search reflects its high review volume in Chicago's broader home-services market, not TV expertise

AirTec Computer & Phone Repair

4.8205 Google reviews

AirTec Computer & Phone Repair is a downtown Chicago electronics shop on Wabash Avenue specializing in iPhone, MacBook, Android and tablet repairs, particularly fast screen and battery replacements.

Fast turnaround, with iPhone screen and battery repairs often done in about 30 minutes
Good pricing and deals on phones, laptops and accessories
Convenient downtown walk-in location
Free screen protector included with some phone repairs

Worth knowing

One detailed review describes a poor experience with a laptop repair, including delayed communication and a computer returned with a pre-existing issue not disclosed upfront

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the business’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated them, ranked against similarly categorized Chicago businesses. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from hundreds of reviewers carries more weight than a 5.0 from a dozen. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does TV mounting or repair cost in Chicago? (2026)

Mounting and repair are priced very differently. HDInstalls publishes a flat rate for standard wall mounting, while actual repair costs depend on the specific part needed.

Job	Typical price
Standard TV wall mounting (HDInstalls)	$99.95
In-wall wiring concealment, add-on (HDInstalls)	$99.95

Figures published directly on HDInstalls’ own website, verified August 2026. Actual TV repair pricing (boards, backlights, panels) depends on the specific part and model; contact Ben’s TV Repair Service or Five Star Electronics directly for a diagnostic quote.

Serving all of Chicago

These businesses cover Chicago and nearby suburbs including Glenview, Oak Lawn and the downtown Loop area. Searching for TV repair near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and directions so you can reach the closest option fast.

What to ask before you book a TV repair or installation

Do you repair the TV itself, or only handle mounting and installation?
What’s the likely cost range once you know the model and the problem?
Do you offer in-home service, or does the TV need to be dropped off?
What’s the warranty on parts and labor after the repair?
Is diagnosis free, or does it come with a fee even if I decide not to proceed?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these businesses?

We started from every business appearing under TV repair searches in Chicago with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. Two of the five (Chicago Appliance Repair Doctor and AirTec Computer & Phone Repair) turned out to specialize in appliances and phones rather than TVs, and we’ve flagged that clearly above. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Which business actually fixes a broken TV screen or backlight?

Ben’s TV Repair Service specializes in this, including sourcing replacement boards and being one of the few Chicago shops handling LED backlight replacement specifically. Five Star Electronics also offers TV repair.

Is it cheaper to repair or replace a broken TV?

It depends on the TV’s age, size and the specific fault. A backlight or board repair on a newer, larger TV is often worth it; ask for a diagnostic quote before deciding, since some repair shops offer this at low or no cost.

The bottom line

If your TV needs mounting or a home theater setup, HDInstalls is the safe default on review volume and reputation. If the television itself is broken, go straight to Ben’s TV Repair Service, the genuine specialist on this list with over 50 years of hands-on repair experience.
