Charging Port Repair in Denver
Phone not charging? Before you assume the worst — bring it in. We clean charging ports for free on every visit. No appointment, no diagnostic fee. If it's just debris, you're done in minutes. If it needs more, we'll tell you exactly what and quote it before we start.
Free Charging Port Cleaning — Walk In Anytime
This is our most common "repair" that isn't a repair at all. Lint, pocket dust, and debris pack into Lightning and USB-C ports over time until the cable can't make proper contact. Most people assume the port is broken. Very often, it just needs a proper cleaning — which we do for free, while you wait, no appointment necessary.
If cleaning restores normal charging, you're done. If it doesn't, we'll tell you exactly what's going on and quote the actual repair before touching anything. No hidden charges, no diagnostic fee, no pressure.

Not Charging Doesn't Always Mean the Port Is Broken
A lot of "charging port repairs" don't need a port repair at all. Here's how we work through the problem — in order, at no charge until we have an answer.
Port Cleaning
We remove lint, debris, and corrosion from the port with precision tools. This fixes the problem in a surprising number of cases — often without any repair needed at all.
Cable & Adapter Test
We test with a known-good cable and charger. A faulty cable or adapter is frequently the culprit — and costs nothing to rule out before any repair is considered.
Battery Check
A severely degraded battery can prevent a device from accepting a charge even when the port is fine. We check battery health and rule this out before recommending a port repair.
Port Replacement
If the port itself is physically damaged, corroded, or has failed — we quote the exact replacement cost for your specific device before starting any work.
Connector types we service
Lightning, USB-C, MagSafe & More
Different devices use different connectors — and each has its own failure modes and repair considerations.
Lightning
Apple's proprietary connector used through iPhone 14 and many iPad generations. Extremely prone to debris accumulation — the small pin connector catches pocket lint easily. Usually the first candidate for a free cleaning.
USB-C
The universal standard now used on iPhone 15 and newer, all modern iPads, MacBooks, Samsung Galaxy, and Google Pixel. Larger opening than Lightning so less prone to debris, but still fails from wear, drops, and moisture over time.
MagSafe
Apple's magnetic MacBook charging connector — MagSafe 2 (older) and MagSafe 3 (current). The magnetic connection protects against trip-and-fall damage but the port itself can still fail from physical damage or debris around the magnetic ring.
DC Barrel Jack
The round DC charging port found on many Windows laptops. Common failure modes include a broken center pin, loose solder joint from repeated cable flex, or physical damage from drops. Often repairable same-day.

Common Charging Problems We Fix
Bring it in if your device is doing any of these. Cleaning is free — diagnosis is free. We'll tell you what's going on before recommending anything.
Won't Charge at All
Plugged in, nothing happens — no charging indicator, no response. Could be port, cable, battery, or internal power board. We diagnose in order from simplest to most complex.
Intermittent Charging
Charges only at certain angles, randomly disconnects, or has to be held in place. Classic sign of debris in the port or a physically damaged connector.
Charges Wirelessly But Not By Cable
MagSafe or Qi wireless works fine but wired charging doesn't. This isolates the problem to the physical port — good news, as it means the battery and charging circuitry are working.
Charges Very Slowly
Device charges but at a fraction of normal speed — often partial debris blocking some pins, a degraded cable, or a failing battery no longer accepting a full charge rate.
Port Visibly Damaged
Bent or broken pins, corrosion visible inside the port, or physical damage from a drop. These usually require port replacement rather than cleaning.
"Accessory Not Supported" Message
iPhone shows this error when plugged in. Almost always caused by debris fouling the Lightning or USB-C port — a free cleaning resolves this the vast majority of the time.
