Assessed first, then quoted. We confirm timing before you commit.

Turn it off and leave it off. Do not charge it, do not plug it into anything and do not press the buttons to see if it still works. Dry the outside, and if it has a removable tray take the SIM out. Then bring it in as soon as you can. Every hour it sits wet, corrosion spreads further across the board.

No. Rice pulls a little moisture from the air around the device and none from inside it, and it leaves starch dust in the ports. Meanwhile the liquid is still on the board corroding it. Rice is the reason a lot of devices that could have been saved arrive here too late.

Often, and it depends far more on what the liquid was and how long it sat than on how wet it got. We open the device, remove the board and clean it properly, then work through what is still faulty. Clean water caught early is usually recoverable. Salt water, coffee and anything sugary are much harder because they keep eating the board after they dry.

Yes. Corrosion carries on under the shields where you cannot see it, and devices that work perfectly for two weeks then die are the single most common water damage story we hear. A clean now is far cheaper than data recovery later.

We quote after we have opened it and seen the board, because there is no honest number before that. The diagnostic is free and if we cannot bring it back you pay nothing.

No. These are hardware repairs and we do not open, copy or erase anything on the device. Back it up first anyway, because any device that already has a fault can fail further while it is being worked on.

Saturday 10am to 5pm, Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm, closed Sunday. No appointment needed on any of those days.

4 Richmond Road, Drumcondra, Dublin 3, D03 FX52, a few minutes from Drumcondra train station and on several bus routes into the city. There is parking on the road outside.

Yes. It makes no difference where a device came from, whether it was bought here, abroad or second hand. Bring it in.

Usually. A phone that shows nothing is often a phone whose screen is dead rather than a phone that is dead, and the two look identical from the outside. Finding out which is free.

What actually happens

From the counter to the bench.

You hand it over

No form to fill in and no appointment to keep. Tell us what it is doing, or what it stopped doing, and we take it from there.

Walk-ins welcome

We find out why

The fault gets diagnosed before anything is quoted, because the obvious part is not always the broken one. That check costs nothing either way.

Free to look

You get a firm number

One price, agreed before work starts. If we find something else inside, we ring you first rather than adding it to the bill.

I had a great experience with the guys, they helped me get started with my new phone, they didn't push me to go for the most expensive items, they respected what I was looking for.
