PS5 & Xbox Cleaning Service in Warrington
A deep clean is a full strip-down, not a blast of compressed air through the vents. Console Dr cleans PS5, PS4, Xbox and Switch consoles at the bench in Warrington for £50, including a thermal service, so a console that runs loud or shuts down goes back to running quietly.
Signs your console needs cleaning
- Fans spinning loud enough to hear over the game
- Console shutting itself down mid-session, or warning about ventilation
- Hot air from the vents and a case that is warm to the touch
- Visible dust in the vents, especially in homes with pets or carpets
- The console lives in an enclosed TV unit or alcove
- Nothing has been cleaned since you bought it two or more years ago

Consoles cleaned in Warrington
Modern consoles are the ones most people ask about, but older hardware benefits more. A PS4 or Xbox One that has never been opened is almost always running hotter than it needs to, because the thermal paste dried out years ago.
Console cleaning FAQs
How much does a PS5 or Xbox cleaning service cost?
A deep clean and thermal service is £50 for PS5, PS4, Xbox and Switch. That is the full job, including refreshing the thermal compound, not a surcharge on top of a cleaning fee. Same-day service adds £20 when Mark has capacity.
Where can I get my PS5 cleaned near me?
Console Dr works from Warrington and takes local drop-offs, arranges collection across the town, and accepts mail-in from anywhere in the UK. Most cleans are back with you inside 48 hours.
Will cleaning my console delete my games or saves?
No. The console is opened, cleaned and reassembled. Your storage, games, saves and account are never touched.
Can I not just blow compressed air through the vents?
It usually makes things worse. Air pushes dust deeper into the heatsink fins where it packs tight and blocks airflow completely, and it can spin the fan faster than its bearings are designed for. Cleaning the fins properly means taking the heatsink off.
Does a clean fix a console that keeps shutting down?
Often, yes. Blocked heatsinks and dried thermal compound cause shutdowns that look like a hardware failure but are really a cooling problem. If diagnosis shows the fault is on the board instead, Mark tells you the repair price before doing anything.
How often should a console be cleaned?
Every two to three years is sensible for most setups. Sooner if you have pets, carpet under the console, smokers in the house, or the console sits in a closed cabinet.
Do you clean PS4 and Xbox One as well?
Yes. Older consoles benefit most, because thermal paste dries out over time and a five year old PS4 or Xbox One is usually running far hotter than it needs to.
