Phone repair in Dublin 13
Dublin 13 runs from Baldoyle out to Sutton and up onto Howth Head, which makes it the postcode where the sea is closest to daily life. It is also the postcode that brings the most salt water damage to the bench.

The areas this covers
Dublin 13 takes in Baldoyle, Sutton, Donaghmede, Bayside and part of Howth. If you navigate by landmarks rather than postcodes, that is the part of the city around Howth Head, Sutton Cross, Donaghmede shopping centre and the Baldoyle estuary.
Around 9 km north east of the workshop on Richmond Road. In along the coast road through Clontarf and Fairview, or the DART to Connolly and out to Drumcondra. Twenty-five minutes by car outside the peak.
If a phone has been in the sea, ring before you set off. There are things worth doing in the first ten minutes and we would rather tell you on the phone than after the drive.
What it costs to get here
- The diagnostic is free, walk-in or collected
- A firm price before anything is opened
- Nothing to pay if we cannot fix it
- 360 days of warranty on the part and the workmanship
- Free parking on Richmond Road
Dublin 13
What comes in from this side of the city.
Salt water is worth understanding, because it behaves differently from the water in a sink. Fresh water can leave a phone working for weeks before corrosion sets in. Salt is conductive and it keeps eating the board after the phone has dried, which is why a handset that went into the sea at Burrow Beach and seemed fine on Monday can be dead by Friday.
What to do is simple and time matters more than anything else. Power it off and leave it off. Do not plug it in, because charging a wet board is what turns a recoverable phone into a dead one. Do not put it in rice; it does nothing but delay you. Get it to a bench where it can be opened, rinsed properly and ultrasonically cleaned, ideally the same day.
Outside of that, this is family suburb work: screens, batteries, tablets that have been dropped, and a steady number of consoles with HDMI ports that have been levered once too often.
Who is here
Coastal suburbs, a lot of families, and a population that spends real time on the water and the cliffs.
Getting the device to us
In along the coast road through Clontarf and Fairview, or the DART to Connolly and out to Drumcondra. Twenty-five minutes by car outside the peak.
If it has been in water
The first thirty minutes decide it.
Power it off and leave it off. Do not plug it in, because charging a wet board is what turns a recoverable phone into a dead one. Do not put it in rice; it does nothing except spend the hours that matter. Salt water is worse than fresh because it keeps corroding after the phone looks dry, so a proper rinse and ultrasonic clean is the repair, not the drying.

Asked all the time
Dublin 13 questions.
Yes. Around 9 km north east of the workshop on Richmond Road. We cover Baldoyle, Sutton, Donaghmede, Bayside and part of Howth, and you can either walk in to 4 Richmond Road in Drumcondra or book the weekday collection and have the device picked up and returned to your own address.
In along the coast road through Clontarf and Fairview, or the DART to Connolly and out to Drumcondra. Twenty-five minutes by car outside the peak. There is free parking on Richmond Road outside the workshop.
The diagnostic is free whether you walk in or send the device, and if we cannot repair it there is nothing to pay at all. Collection and return runs Monday to Friday across Dublin; ask for the current charge when you book, and it is quoted before anything is arranged.
You pay nothing. No fix, no fee covers the diagnostic and the handling, so the only time you pay is when the device comes back working. If a repair turns out to cost more than the device is worth, we tell you that instead of doing it.
Yes. It makes no difference where a device came from, whether it was bought here, abroad or second hand. Bring it in.
For most screen and battery work, 15 to 45 minutes, and people wait in the shop. Anything that has to come apart further, or that we want to run for a while before handing back, we tell you the day rather than guess at an hour.
No. The diagnostic is free whether you go ahead with the repair or not, and that is true for the quick check at the counter and the longer one on the bench.
For common faults on common models, yes, and the price is on the page you are reading. For anything with no clear symptom, liquid damage especially, nobody can price it honestly without opening it, so we do that for free first.
Card or cash at the counter when you collect. You get a firm price before any work starts.
Yes, anywhere in Dublin, Monday to Friday. Tell us where you are and we arrange a time. Outside Dublin we are not set up for collection, so the device would need to come to the shop.
