Electromechanical Pinball Repairs in Alberta

Videogame Repairs provides electromechanical pinball repairs and restoration to the Edmonton area and all of Alberta. We provide a pickup and delivery service throughout Alberta if you are unable to bring your machine to us.

Whether you are restoring your electromechanical pinball that has been in your family for years or you are new to the pinball scene, getting your pinball in tip top shape is always worth it!  At videogamerepairs.ca we treat every pinball like its our own.  When we repair your pinball, we drill down below the surface to uncover the root cause of your problems.  Our work include extensive futureproofing to ensure a lasting repair.  Patchwork repairs, typically done on site, have a high failure rate compared to a repair done in our shop as we have many more tools at our disposal.

We repair all electromechanical pinballs at the component level.  Our futureproofing repairs include cold solder joint repairs, switch stack and relay cleanings, and protective wax coatings on your playfield, and much more.

Call or email us to get your electromechanical pinball repaired today!

The Most Common Electromechanical Pinball Repairs We See

em_pinball_playfield_tuning

SYMPTOM: You've coined up, hit the start button but your game is confused and won't kick out the ball to commence play.  You may also see your score reels trying to reset but they get stuck.  Electromechanical pinballs require all the switches and relays to fire at the appropriate times to function properly.  If a few switches are out of sync, your game won't play properly.

SERVICE: Game tuning & repairs

ROUGH PRICE:  $1000+

em_pinball_playfield_flippers

SYMPTOM:  There's a lot of travel in your solenoids before the flipper actually fires.  Your flippers don't have that same oomph they used to.  Or maybe they are stuck in a locked on position.  Pop bumpers or slings also lack their former power.

SERVICE:  Flipper and pop bumper rebuilds

ROUGH PRICE: $400

What to Expect

  • PICKUP DROP/OFF SERVICE

    Pinball repairs must be brought to our shop for a proper lasting repair.  For a safe transfer of your pinball, we offer a flat rate of $190 for both your pick up and drop off (within the Anthony Henday ring road).  If you bring the pinball machine yourself, we will help you unload when you arrive at our shop.  Site calls are only offered for machines that have been rebuilt through our shop previously.

  • FLAT RATE DIAGNOSTICS

    Figuring out what’s wrong the first time will save you money.  We test everything in your machine to isolate the problem and give you possible min and max outcomes so there’s no surprises.  We require a 2 hour period ($99/hr) to diagnose your machine and provide an estimate for what your final repair bill could look like.

  • COMPREHENSIVE REPAIRS

    Our repairs go below the surface to both solve your original problem and future proof your machine against known issues that can surface over time.  We keep you up to speed if we discover anything that deviates from your original estimate.

  • UPGRADES

    While your machine is in the shop, you’ll be given options to upgrade your machine with some next-level tech!  New LEDs, Batteryless RAM, to name a few.  Take your Pinball to a whole new level of awesome that your friends and family will enjoy for years to come.
