About Me
About Joey Does Tech
Hi, I'm Joey - the fixer, filmer and occasional board-breaker behind Joey Does Tech, a UK electronics repair channel and community. I fix broken consoles and controllers on YouTube and Twitch, and teach people to do the same.
In February 2020 I couldn't use a soldering iron. I wanted out of the 9-to-5, so I started buying broken tech, fixing it and filming every win and fail along the way. That side hustle turned into a job at a repair shop, then into Joey Does Tech full-time, and now a community of hundreds of people learning to do the same.
How I Got Here
Spoiler: it wasn't overnight.
- 2007First YouTube videosChopping willow trees in Runescape near Draynor Manor. Peak content. From there it was FIFA, League of Legends, Old School Runescape, PUBG and plenty more.
- 2012Started livestreamingOften to 3-7 viewers, for years. Not glamorous, but I never stopped.
- 2020Picked up a soldering ironZero experience - I barely knew how to use a screwdriver. I started fixing broken gadgets to resell and filmed the whole thing. The audience I'd built over the years came with me, and things finally started to grow.
- 2022The channel became my CVMy repair videos landed me a job at a local repair shop, where I spent nearly two years fixing whatever came through the door.
- January 2024Full-time content creatorLeft the repair shop and went all in on Joey Does Tech. Scary, but the best decision I've made.
- April 2024Twitch PartnerMade official on 13 April 2024 - a big one after 12 years of streaming.
- November 2025Launched the Electronics Repair communityThe thing I wish I'd had when I started: a repair community on Skool with lessons, weekly calls and expert techs on hand.
- NowStill just getting startedRepair videos, buying broken tech and selling it on fixed, and a community that's grown to 390+ members. Not bad for someone who couldn't use a screwdriver in 2020.
Streaming for Good
Some of my proudest moments had nothing to do with repair. Thanks to an amazing community, we've raised over £37,000 on stream.
What I'm Up To Now
If you've found me, you're probably here for one of these.
Come Say Hi
Whether I'm fixing a device or accidentally breaking one, I'm always learning - and I'm glad you're here for the ride.
