What this fixes

The faults a water damage treatment puts right.

  • It went in water and still worksThe most deceptive one. Corrosion starts immediately and keeps going, so a phone that survived the swim often fails days later.
  • The speaker is muffled or cracklingWater in the speaker mesh. Sometimes it clears, often it has already taken the driver.
  • It charges intermittently since the spillCorrosion in the port. Charging a corroded port makes it worse quickly.
  • The speaker is muffled sinceWater in the mesh. Sometimes it clears and often the driver has already gone.
  • The screen is patchy or discolouredLiquid under the display, and the panel is often the least of what is wrong.
  • The camera is fogged from insideMoisture behind the lens. It rarely dries out and it usually means the module.
Before you spend anything

Is it definitely the liquid?

Liquid damage is the one repair where what you do in the first hour matters more than what we do afterwards.

IfIt is wet right now
Turn it off and leave it off. Do not charge it, do not press the buttons, and do not put it in rice. Rice does nothing but hold moisture against the phone. Bring it in as soon as you can.
IfIt got wet weeks ago and has only just started misbehaving
That is corrosion catching up and it is still worth assessing. Tell us when it happened, because it changes where we look.
IfOnly one thing is wrong, like the speaker
Still assess the whole phone. One symptom after a soaking rarely means only one thing is affected.
IfYou need what is on it more than the phone itself
Say so first. If data matters more than the handset we work in a different order, and starting the wrong way round can cost you both.
IfThe data matters more than the phone
Say that first. Recovering the data and recovering the phone are sometimes different routes, and starting the wrong way round can cost you both.

If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.

What parts do we fit?

Two tiers, and you choose knowing which is which: a genuine Samsung service part where one is made for this component, or premium aftermarket where none is. The warranty is 360 days on either.

We will not describe a part as genuine, original or Samsung certified unless that is what is going into your phone. If the honest answer is premium aftermarket, that is what we say at the counter.

    Genuine, OEM and aftermarket: what the words actually mean

    What the €35 includes

    • Full disassembly and inspection of the board
    • Ultrasonic cleaning of affected components
    • A written assessment of what is recoverable before anything is charged for
    • The cost of the assessment taken off the repair if you go ahead

    No additional paid work happens without your approval. If the diagnostic finds something behind the part we are replacing, we stop, explain it and confirm the cost first.

    If getting here is the problem, we collect and return across Dublin from Monday to Friday. It costs the same repair price and carries the same 360-day warranty.

    How we do it

    From the counter to back in your hand.

    Tell us what it is doing

    Book online in about two minutes, or walk in without an appointment. Describe the symptom rather than the repair, it is more useful to us.

    Free diagnostic

    Nothing is opened or ordered until we know what failed. There is no charge for this and no obligation to go ahead afterwards.

    You approve the price

    You get the exact figure before any work starts. Nothing else happens without asking you first.

    The repair is carried out

    Carried out here in Drumcondra rather than sent away, by people who do this repair daily.

    Bench testing

    We test what we replaced and everything that sits beside it, because that is where a rushed repair shows up.

    Back in your hands

    Yours again, from the counter or by courier, with 360 days of cover on the part and the work.

    Before it goes back

    What we test every time.

    A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.

    Board inspection under magnification

    Corrosion is visible long before it is fatal, and that is what decides whether the phone is worth repairing.

    Every function afterwards

    Cameras, speakers, microphones, charging and sensors, since liquid does not respect one component.

    Every port and every button

    Because corrosion spreads to whatever it can reach, not only to the part you noticed.

    Cameras, speakers and microphones

    All of them are moisture-sensitive and all of them are checked before it goes back.

    What happens to what is on it?

    This is hardware work. We do not need to go into your photos, messages or accounts to do it, and we do not.

    We do need to switch the device on and use it to test the repair, so we may ask for your passcode. If you would rather not hand it over, tell us and we will show you what we cannot verify without it. Any passcode you give us goes on the paper docket and the docket gets shredded. It is never stored in our system.

    Back the device up before any repair. Not because we expect to lose anything, but because a device that has already been dropped is one whose storage has already been shaken, and a backup costs nothing.

    Will it still survive a splash?

    Treat the phone as no longer water resistant after any repair, including ours.

    Apple's IP68 rating is measured on a brand new, factory sealed phone under controlled laboratory conditions. It is not a permanent property of the device. The seal degrades with age, heat and everyday knocks long before anybody opens it.

    Opening a phone means cutting through that seal. We refit the display with fresh adhesive, which restores a physical seal and keeps ordinary splashes and rain out. What we will not do is tell you it is back to IP68, because we have no way to test that and neither does any independent shop in Ireland.

    If your phone lives near water, say so when you book and we will talk you through what the adhesive does and does not cover.

    The 360-day warranty

    Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.

    What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.

    No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.

    Three ways to get it to us

    • Walk in to Drumcondra4 Richmond Road, Dublin 3. No appointment. Mon to Sat 10:00 to 18:00, closed Sunday. Most phone screens and batteries done in 15 to 45 minutes while you wait.
    • We collect and returnDoor to door across Dublin, Monday to Friday, usually 2 to 4 working days. The repair takes the same time; the courier is the difference.
    • Send it in yourselfPost it to the shop with a tracked, insured service and a note with your number. We cannot cover a parcel in transit, and that is the honest trade-off for the route existing.

    Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.

    Asked all the time

    Galaxy S25 screen questions.

    €35, including the part, the fitting, the testing and the 360-day warranty. VAT is included. You get that figure confirmed before anything is opened, and if we cannot repair the phone you pay nothing.

    Assessed first, then quoted. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.

    No. It is the most persistent myth in phone repair. Rice does not draw moisture out of a sealed device, it holds the phone in a humid pocket and buys corrosion more time. Turn the phone off and bring it in.

    No, and no honest shop covers it. Corrosion carries on after the repair in ways nobody can predict or control, so a warranty on it would be a promise we could not keep.

    Often, yes, and it is worth saying that is the priority before we start rather than after.

    Often, and it is worth saying that is the priority before we start rather than after.

    Turn it off, leave it off, and bring it in. Hair dryers push moisture further in and heat is hard on a board that is already compromised.

    Your data stays yours

    Excellent customer service bought my samsung A54 best price in dublin.

    Mr MAURICE CaldwellTrustpilot

    As I'm a lawyer, I need a reliable phone. For me, it's an office extension in my pocket. I decided to buy a Samsung S23 Ultra. I live in Drumcondra so being aware of their excellent reputation locally, I visited iMend last week. The manager and assistant could not have been more helpful. I bought the phone and it exceeds my expectations. On checking, the price was the lowest in Dublin. Anyone who needs a phone or a small electronic product will be well looked after by iMend. Great people to deal with!
