Hard repairs. Hard-to-find parts. Real fixes.
Mike’s Specialty E-Repair Shop is Houston’s “difficult repair” shop is the place you bring the device after someone else says it’s “beyond repair.” We specialize in the weird failures, the intermittent issues, the board-level problems, and the jobs that take patience, skill, and the right tools to solve.
Meet Mike
Hi, I’m Mike Kerville. I grew up tinkering with electronics and fixing things even when they weren’t technically “broken.” I attended college at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.), began working for a large tech firm in the San Francisco Bay Area in 2005, and later realized I wanted to do what I’ve always loved most: take things apart, figure them out, and make them better. That’s what brought me back to Texas—closer to family—and into building a repair shop focused on real problem-solving that other repair shops are unable to or are unwilling to fix.
Since 2009, I’ve been helping clients using my background in electrical engineering, C++, Python, PHP, and Microsoft and Apple certifications. As the shop grew, I leaned into the work most places won’t touch—hard repairs that require deeper diagnostics and hands-on board work.
Tested, certified electronics for sale
Sometimes we also have devices available that clients sold to us or that we obtained independently. When we sell electronics, they’re thoroughly tested and certified working (Mike’s “e-certified”).
