- 4 Richmond Road, Drumcondra, Dublin 3
- No appointment needed during opening hours
- Same-day service on most phones, depending on device health
Dublin 2 covers the part of the city with the highest concentration of people who cannot be without a phone for a day: students mid-term, offices mid-quarter, and a lot of contractors whose next job comes in by message. That is the reason most repairs here are quoted as a wait rather than a drop-off.
Mon to Sat 10 to 6
Dublin 2 takes in Grafton Street, Temple Bar, St Stephen's Green, Merrion Square, Baggot Street, Dame Street and the Grand Canal Dock end of the docklands. If you navigate by landmarks rather than postcodes, that is the part of the city around Trinity College, Leinster House, the National Gallery and Grand Canal Square.
Around 3 km south of the workshop on Richmond Road. North across the river and up through Dorset Street, or the train from Tara Street or Connolly to Drumcondra. Around fifteen minutes outside rush hour.
Parking in Dublin 2 is the reason the collection service exists. If you are in an office between Baggot Street and the canal, booking a courier collection is generally less hassle than driving to Drumcondra and back.
Trinity and the surrounding student flats produce a particular pattern of work. A cracked screen on a three-year-old iPhone, where the honest question is whether to fix it or put the money towards something else. We answer that question the same way every time: if the repair costs less than half of what a replacement would, fix it. The diagnostic is free either way, and if the answer is that it is not worth it, we say so and charge nothing.
The Grand Canal end is different again. Company-issued laptops and phones, often on a support contract that does not cover a cracked screen or a swollen battery. Those come to an independent bench because the authorised route means posting the device away for a fortnight. A MacBook battery or a keyboard is usually a same-week job here, and a logic board fault that another shop has written off is worth a second opinion.
Students at trinity, professional offices around merrion and baggot street, and the tech companies down at grand canal dock.
North across the river and up through Dorset Street, or the train from Tara Street or Connolly to Drumcondra. Around fifteen minutes outside rush hour.
The diagnostic is free and it is a real one: the device is opened and looked at, not glanced at across a counter. If the repair costs more than half of what a comparable replacement would, we say so and charge nothing. If you are about to buy a second-hand handset, bring it in first and we will check the IMEI, the battery health and whether the screen has already been replaced.
Yes. Around 3 km south of the workshop on Richmond Road. We cover Grafton Street, Temple Bar, St Stephen's Green, Merrion Square, Baggot Street, Dame Street and the Grand Canal Dock end of the docklands, 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.
North across the river and up through Dorset Street, or the train from Tara Street or Connolly to Drumcondra. Around fifteen minutes outside rush hour. 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.
