What this fixes
What a speaker & microphone repair actually fixes.
- Callers cannot hear youThe microphone rather than the speaker. There are several in the phone and it is worth knowing which.
- Sound only works on speakerphoneNarrows it to the earpiece rather than the loudspeaker.
- Sound only works on speakerphoneThat points at the earpiece rather than anything upstream, and it saves a diagnostic.
- Crackling at high volume onlyA damaged driver. It usually gets worse and it does not recover.
- It went quiet gradually over monthsVery often compacted lint rather than a failed speaker. A careful clean is sometimes the whole repair.
- Sound cuts out when the phone is squeezedA connector rather than the speaker. Worth opening and checking before ordering a part.
Before you spend anything
Is it definitely the speaker?
Half the phones that arrive here with no sound have nothing wrong with the speaker.
IfIt is quiet rather than silent
Look at the speaker grille in a good light. Compacted lint and dust muffle a loudspeaker very effectively and a careful clean is often the whole repair.
IfSound works on headphones or Bluetooth but not the speaker
That confirms the speaker rather than anything upstream, which is useful and saves a diagnostic.
IfIt is quiet rather than silent
Look at the grille in a good light. Compacted lint muffles a loudspeaker very effectively long before it silences it.
IfIt has been silent since a screen repair elsewhere
The earpiece sits in the display assembly and is easy to disturb. Bring it in rather than assuming the part failed.
IfIt stopped after the phone got wet
Assess the liquid damage first. A new speaker in a corroding phone is money wasted.
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?
We source against the part number the laptop itself carries. That is the only way to be sure of a fit, and it is why we sometimes need the machine in front of us before quoting. Every part carries the 360-day warranty.
Some manufacturers still supply parts for these and some do not. You get told which situation yours is in rather than a vague reassurance.
What the Free diagnostic includes
- The speaker or microphone replaced, or cleaned where that is enough
- Every audio path tested, not only the one that failed
- A real call made before the phone goes back
- 360-day warranty on the part and the workmanship
You will not find work on the bill you did not agree to. If something else shows up while the laptop is open, we stop and ask rather than deciding for you.
A collection and return across Dublin can be added when you book. The repair price and the warranty are the same either way.
Choose the part
Two tiers, named before you agree.
Speakers and microphones are small parts and the tier gap on them is the smallest on this list.
Value Edition
Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard
Made to the original specification. On a speaker this is hard to fault and it is what most of these repairs use.
Priced at the counterThe price for this repair is confirmed after a free diagnostic. Which tier suits your device is a conversation at the counter, and the price for each is on the table before you decide. The 360-day warranty is the same on both, because we would not offer a tier we did not think would last.
Before any of this, let us look at the grille. Compacted pocket lint muffles a loudspeaker very effectively, and where a clean fixes it that is what you pay for and no part goes in at all.
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 hear the number first. If it is not worth it to you, that is a perfectly good answer and it costs you nothing.
The repair is carried out
It stays in the shop. The work is done on our own bench by the technicians who do it every day of the week.
Bench testing
Nothing is handed back untested. The repaired part and its neighbours are all checked first.
Back in your hands
Pick it up from Richmond Road or have it couriered back across Dublin. Either way it carries the 360-day warranty.
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.
A real phone call
Both directions. It is the only test that proves the earpiece and the call microphone together.
Loudspeaker at volume
Held at full, because a failing driver sounds fine quietly and buzzes when pushed.
Proximity
Checked at the same time, since it sits beside the earpiece and gets disturbed with it.
A real phone call
Made and answered, since that is the only test that proves the path end to end.
Will my data be safe?
Nothing about this repair requires reading what is on the device, and nobody here does.
Testing is a different matter. To prove a repair works we have to turn the device on and use it, which sometimes means asking for your passcode. Say no if you prefer and we will show you exactly which checks we cannot complete without it. Where you do give it, it is written on the paper docket and the docket is shredded. There is deliberately no field for a passcode in our system.
Take a backup before you come in. It is free, it takes two minutes on a device that still works, and it is the one thing nobody regrets having done.
Will it still survive a splash?
Treat the device as no longer water resistant after any repair, including this one.
An IP rating is measured on a brand new, factory sealed device in a laboratory. It is a description of how that device left the factory, not a property it keeps. Heat, age and everyday knocks degrade the seal long before anybody opens it, which is why phones that have never been repaired still let water in.
Opening a device means cutting through adhesive. We refit with fresh adhesive, which gives you back a physical seal that keeps rain and splashes out. What we will not do is claim the original rating is restored, because there is no way for us or for any independent shop in Ireland to test that.
If the device lives near water, tell us when you book. It changes what we recommend and it is a two minute conversation rather than a surprise afterwards.
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
HP Laptop screen questions.
We quote it after a free diagnostic, because the price depends on what we find. No fix, no fee, so if we cannot repair it you pay nothing.
Usually same day. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.
Very often, yes. The loudspeaker grille packs with pocket lint and it muffles sound long before it silences it. We clean and test before quoting a replacement, and where the clean fixes it that is what you pay for.
There is more than one microphone in the phone and they are used for different things. That symptom usually points at the call microphone specifically, which is a smaller job than it sounds.
Gently, with a soft dry brush and the phone switched off. Never a pin and never compressed air into the grille.
Sometimes, because on most phones the earpiece is part of the display assembly. Tell us what the sound is doing when you book so we check both.
A speaker or microphone is one of the cheaper parts in a phone, so usually yes.
