Repair Sabotaged PCB Files
Budget: $30 – $250 CAD
Several months ago I paid a Chinese design house to create a small two-layer PCBA. Because I chose not to let them handle production, they stripped the entire bottom copper layer out of the Gerber set and polluted the BOM with wrong part numbers before handing the files back.
What I can supply
• A single .zip that contains the sabotaged Gerbers (.gbr) and the altered .csv BOM.
• High-resolution photos of two original prototypes (they power up, but I damaged pads while desoldering parts for identification).
• A partial list of components I have already confirmed.
What I need from you
1. Reconstruct or redraw the missing bottom copper layer so the board is once again production-ready.
2. Audit and correct the BOM, matching it to the photos and the partial list I provide.
3. Return a clean, manufacturable package: fixed Gerber set, corrected BOM, and—if you use KiCad, Altium Designer, or Eagle—the project source files so I can do future revisions myself.
Acceptance
I’ll consider the job complete when JLCPCB’s online viewer loads the full board with no DRC errors and each BOM line maps to a real, orderable part.
If this sounds straightforward for you and you can keep the cost sensible, let’s talk—the sooner I can send this board to fab, the better.
