Walk in
- 4 Richmond Road, Drumcondra, Dublin 3
- No appointment needed during opening hours
- Same-day service on most phones, depending on device health
Dublin 4 runs from the offices at Ballsbridge down to the sea at Sandymount, and the devices reflect it: newer handsets, more iPads, more MacBooks, and more people who would rather have the original part fitted than the cheapest one available.
Mon to Sat 10 to 6
Dublin 4 takes in Ballsbridge, Donnybrook, Sandymount, Ringsend, Irishtown, Merrion and Pembroke. If you navigate by landmarks rather than postcodes, that is the part of the city around the Aviva Stadium, the RDS, UCD's Merrion Street end and Sandymount Strand.
Around 5 km south east of the workshop on Richmond Road. In along the coast and around through the city, or the DART to Connolly and one stop out to Drumcondra. Twenty minutes or so by car when the Merrion Road is behaving.
The collection and return run covers Dublin 4 on weekdays, which for anybody working around Ballsbridge or the Merrion Road is usually easier than the drive across town.
That last point is worth spelling out, because it is where repair shops differ most. We fit genuine or OEM-equivalent parts where they exist and premium aftermarket where they do not, and we say which one is going into your device before we start. On an iPhone that means a screen that keeps True Tone and does not lose brightness after three months. On a Samsung it means an original service panel on the current Galaxy models, because the aftermarket alternatives for those are noticeably worse.
Sandymount and Irishtown bring the other kind of job: sea water. A phone that has been in the sea at Sandymount Strand is a different repair from one dropped in a sink. Salt keeps working on the board long after the phone looks dry, so a rinse and a proper ultrasonic clean matters more than the drying does.
Embassies and professional offices around ballsbridge, families in sandymount and donnybrook, and a large student population spilling out of ucd.
In along the coast and around through the city, or the DART to Connolly and one stop out to Drumcondra. Twenty minutes or so by car when the Merrion Road is behaving.
Genuine or OEM-equivalent parts where they exist, premium aftermarket where they do not, and we say which one before the device is opened. On an iPhone that is the difference between a screen that keeps True Tone and one that loses brightness in three months. Either way it carries the same 360-day warranty on the part and the workmanship.
Yes. Around 5 km south east of the workshop on Richmond Road. We cover Ballsbridge, Donnybrook, Sandymount, Ringsend, Irishtown, Merrion and Pembroke, 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 and around through the city, or the DART to Connolly and one stop out to Drumcondra. Twenty minutes or so by car when the Merrion Road is behaving. 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, 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.
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.
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.
