NORRIDGE, Ill., April 10, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tech repair brand uBreakiFix opened its newest location, uBreakiFix Norridge, on April 4 at 7235 W. Forest Preserve Drive. uBreakiFix Norridge joins several stores across Cook County, including stores in Chicago, Evanston, La Grange, Niles, Oak Lawn, Orland Park, and Schaumburg.
uBreakiFix services anything with a power button, including smartphones, game consoles, tablets, computers, drones, hoverboards, and everything in between. To date, uBreakiFix has completed nearly 4 million repairs. While common fixes include cracked screens, software issues, and camera issues, the brand offers support for most technical problems on any electronic device, regardless of make or model.
Through strategic partnerships with leading technology companies, including Samsung and Google, uBreakiFix provides Samsung Galaxy customers and Google Pixel and Pixelbook customers with manufacturer-backed, same-day repair services using genuine parts. Through the partnership with Samsung, Galaxy owners can get in and out-of-warranty repairs at more than 300 locations nationwide, with most repairs completed in two hours or less.
uBreakiFix Norridge is the second location for owners Alyson Lynch-Roland and Jill Purtell, who also own uBreakiFix Schaumburg and plan to open four additional stores in the area.
“We love the Norridge community and believe there is tremendous need for affordable, high quality tech repair here,” Lynch-Roland said. “As local owners, we are familiar with the area and the people and look forward to providing our friends and neighbors here with the best tech repair customer service the area has to offer.”
uBreakiFix was founded in 2009 by millennial duo Justin Wetherill and David Reiff, who later partnered with Eddie Trujillo to transition their Internet-based brand to a brick and mortar model. By offering convenience, accessibility, and unparalleled customer service, uBreakiFix filled a gap in the repair marketplace and has since emerged as an industry leader in growth, service offerings, and authorized partnerships. In 2018, Wetherill was inducted into the Forbes Technology Council, and uBreakiFix earned a top spot on Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500® list, ranking #18 overall, #1 in the Electronics Repair category, and #1 on the Top New Franchises list.
