Electronics Repair Shop uBreakiFix Opens In Hixson

  • Friday, December 17, 2021

Tech repair provider uBreakiFix by Asurion has opened its newest franchise location in Hixson at 5211 Hwy. 153 Suite 109. The store offers professional repair services for anything with a power button, from smartphones, tablets and computers to game consoles, smart speakers and drones—and everything in between.

"While common repairs include cracked screens, battery issues and water damage, uBreakiFix repair experts have fixed more than 12 million devices and can help with most any tech mishaps, with most basic repairs completed in two hours or less," officials said. 

uBreakiFix Hixson is owned by Kevin and Chris O’Beirne and Chance Barnett, who also owns seven other locations in Tennessee. 

“It’s no secret that a cracked screen is a frustrating inconvenience,” said Mr.

O’Beirne. “That’s why at uBreakiFix, we understand the importance of customer service. Not only do we provide expert repairs with the highest quality parts available, but we value each customer relationship and respect their time by offering convenient and affordable repairs in a matter of hours.”

Officials said, "uBreakiFix repair experts fix all types of electronics, regardless of make or model, and uBreakiFix is an authorized repair provider for some devices, including Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel smartphones. Customers can book a repair appointment online or stop by the store for walk-in service. uBreakiFix offers free, no-obligation diagnostics on all gadgets, as well as a low-price guarantee and 90-day warranty on all repairs."

uBreakiFix was founded in 2009 after Co-founder Justin Wetherill dropped and shattered his own smartphone, sparking the idea for a convenient, affordable repair option. Mr. Wetherill partnered with David Reiff and Eddie Trujillo to bring the concept to life, and it has since grown from a single storefront in Orlando, Fl to more than 700 locations across the U.S. and Canada. uBreakiFix joined the Asurion® family in 2019 and now operates as a subsidiary of the tech care company.

“We are excited to serve more people in Hixson with fast and affordable tech repair,” said uBreakiFix CEO Dave Barbuto. “We all rely on our phones and laptops more than ever before, and at uBreakiFix our mission is bigger than repairing shattered screens and broken charge ports. We fix tech because people rely on tech to stay connected to things that are important to them. I look forward to serving this community through our new Hixson location.”
