Dublin 3 is the workshop's own postcode. Richmond Road runs between Drumcondra and Fairview, which puts the bench inside a fifteen-minute walk of most of Marino and East Wall and a short drive from Clontarf and Killester.
Mon to Sat 10 to 6
Dublin 3 takes in Clontarf, Fairview, Marino, East Wall, Killester, Dollymount and Drumcondra. If you navigate by landmarks rather than postcodes, that is the part of the city around Croke Park, St Anne's Park, the Bull Wall and Fairview Park.
The workshop is in Dublin 3. You are already here. 4 Richmond Road is off the Drumcondra Road, a couple of minutes from Fairview and about ten from Clontarf Road.
On a match day at Croke Park, Clonliffe Road and the streets around it are closed to traffic and the whole area is walking pace. If your repair is not urgent, it is worth coming in on a different day. If it is urgent, walk.
Being the local shop changes what turns up. A lot of it is the ordinary work of a neighbourhood: batteries that no longer hold a day, charging ports packed with lint, screens dropped on a footpath. Most of those are done while you wait, and waiting here means sitting in the shop rather than going home and coming back.
The rest is the work other places send away. Board-level faults, water damage that has been sitting for a week, laptops that will not power on at all. That is the reason people travel to a bench rather than a counter, and it is why the diagnostic comes first and the price comes second.
The seafront adds one more category. Phones that have been in the water at Dollymount or the Bull Wall come in salted rather than just wet, and salt water is the worse of the two because it keeps corroding after the phone has dried. If that has happened, do not try to charge it, and get it in the same day if you can.
The shop's own neighbours: families in marino and clontarf, students near dcu and all hallows, and the crowds that fill croke park a dozen times a year.
You are already here. 4 Richmond Road is off the Drumcondra Road, a couple of minutes from Fairview and about ten from Clontarf Road.
Plenty of repairs get refused rather than attempted: a phone that will not power on at all, a board that has had water sitting on it, a console with no picture, a laptop written off by somebody who never opened it. Those need a microscope and hot air rather than a screwdriver, and they are most of the reason an independent workshop exists.
Yes. The workshop is in Dublin 3. We cover Clontarf, Fairview, Marino, East Wall, Killester, Dollymount and Drumcondra, 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.
You are already here. 4 Richmond Road is off the Drumcondra Road, a couple of minutes from Fairview and about ten from Clontarf Road. 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.
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.
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.
Bring it in and we do it again at no cost, for 360 days from the repair, on the part and the workmanship both. That does not cover new accidental damage, which we will always be straight with you about.
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.
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.
