### Why Do Tablet Screens Crack?

Tablet screens are made of glass and are susceptible to cracks from drops, impacts, and pressure. Even a small drop can lead to a spiderweb of cracks across your display. Our technicians often see tablets that have fallen off a table or slipped from someone's hands while multitasking. A protective case and tempered glass can absorb some impact, but if your screen is already cracked, it's time for a professional repair.

### Battery and Charging Issues

If your tablet battery drains quickly or refuses to charge, you might be dealing with a worn-out battery or a faulty charging port. Batteries degrade over time, and ports can become loose or clogged with debris. Before throwing your tablet away, let us diagnose whether you need a simple battery replacement or a charging port soldering fix. Our technicians use high quality replacement parts so your device maintains its performance and lifespan.

### Software Glitches and Broken Buttons

Not all tablet problems are hardware related. Slow performance, unexpected shutdowns, or unresponsive buttons can be caused by software bugs or worn out components like power buttons and volume keys. Our team can help clean up software, reinstall a fresh OS, and replace button assemblies so your tablet feels new again.

### DIY vs. Professional Tablet Repair

You might be tempted to fix a cracked screen or replace a battery at home after watching a few tutorial videos. While DIY repair can be cheaper up front, it often requires specialized tools and experience. Without them, you risk damaging internal components, breaking delicate connectors, or losing screws. Professional technicians at First Coast Tech have completed hundreds of tablet repairs and work with high quality parts. We provide a service warranty so you can be confident in the repair. For small software issues like app crashes, a DIY factory reset may help; but for major hardware problems, leave it to the pros.
