There’s nothing like the excitement of game night in Barrie—pizza, friends, a little friendly trash talk, and…
Your Xbox throws a tantrum.
Suddenly, your “quick round” of Rocket League is more like an hour of frantic Googling and creative swearing.
Don’t panic.
You don’t have to join a secret Facebook group or perform a mystical handshake in the Zehrs parking lot to find help.
You just need to know where Barrie’s real console whisperers are hiding—and spoiler alert: we’re not actually hiding. We’re just working through a mountain of HDMI port repairs (and drinking Timmies by the gallon).
The Classic Xbox Drama Scenarios (Tell Us If This Is You):
- Random black screen during your best Fortnite streak (your squad will never let you live it down)
- Red Ring of Death (a classic, and not the fun kind)
- Grinding, clicking, or “I swear it didn’t sound like that last week” noises
- Controllers that disconnect more than your grandma’s WiFi
- Ports so loose your cable falls out if someone sneezes nearby
Why Barrie Gamers Join the Secret Society
- No lectures.
We won’t ask how many Mountain Dews have been spilled on your console, or how that peanut butter got in the USB port. (But seriously—how?)
- Real fixes, real fast.
Most repairs are done in a day or two, so your kill/death ratio doesn’t take too big a hit.
- Local techs, actual gamers.
We speak fluent Xbox. If you mention Halo, we’ll get misty-eyed.

- Same-day diagnosis whenever possible
- Free advice on avoiding the next disaster

How the (Totally Not-So) Secret Process Works

No passwords, no handshakes, just show up.
