Dublin 18 contains Sandyford Business District, which is among the largest office clusters in the country. Most of what comes to the bench from this postcode is work equipment, and work equipment has a different set of priorities from a personal phone.
Mon to Sat 10 to 6
Dublin 18 takes in Sandyford, Leopardstown, Foxrock, Cabinteely, Stepaside and Carrickmines. If you navigate by landmarks rather than postcodes, that is the part of the city around Sandyford Business District, Leopardstown Racecourse, the Luas Green Line and Carrickmines retail park.
Around 11 km south east of the workshop on Richmond Road. Luas into the city and the train out to Drumcondra, or the M50 and in. Forty minutes or so by car at the wrong time of day.
If this is a company device, ask about the collection run and about bulk pricing before booking a one-off repair. It is usually both faster and cheaper.
The first is downtime. A device that is out of action is somebody not working, so the useful measure is not the repair time but the total time away from the desk. That is what the collection run is for: the device is picked up, repaired, tested and returned, and nobody spends a morning driving.
The second is consistency. A company running twenty handsets wants the same part, the same warranty and the same invoice every time rather than a different arrangement per repair. That is what the business page covers, along with bulk pricing and priority on the bench.
The third is data. Every repair here is hardware only. We do not read, copy or move anything on a device, and where a repair genuinely requires the device to be unlocked we ask rather than assume. For company devices under a mobile device management policy that distinction usually matters to somebody in IT.
Outside of work devices, the residential end of Dublin 18 brings the usual: screens, batteries, iPads and the occasional console.
One of the country's biggest concentrations of office employment, alongside established residential suburbs.
Luas into the city and the train out to Drumcondra, or the M50 and in. Forty minutes or so by car at the wrong time of day.
A company device out of action is a person not working, so it gets treated differently from a personal phone: priority on the bench, a firm price before anything is opened, and a collection run so nobody spends a morning driving. Where a business is running more than a handful of handsets there is a proper arrangement to be made rather than a series of one-off repairs.
Yes. Around 11 km south east of the workshop on Richmond Road. We cover Sandyford, Leopardstown, Foxrock, Cabinteely, Stepaside and Carrickmines, 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.
Luas into the city and the train out to Drumcondra, or the M50 and in. Forty minutes or so by car at the wrong time of day. 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.
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.
That depends on what the device is worth and what the repair costs, and we will tell you honestly when the sums do not work. Turning away a job we could have charged for is the reason people come back.
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, with collection across Dublin, an invoice rather than a counter payment, and a single contact rather than a queue. There is a page for that with the details.
Bought a phone at imend, Drumcondra, near DCU. What could have been a difficult experience for an untechical minded person like myself was made so easy by the very helpful staff member who ensured my phone was up and running smoothly with everything working well before I left the shop.
