What this fixes

Why people book a data recovery.

  • It went in water and there is a year of photos on itUrgent. Corrosion is the enemy of recovery and every day counts.
  • It is stuck restartingOften software, and often the best case for recovery.
  • The device will not power on and the photos are not backed upThe most common reason people come in for this, and it is often recoverable.
  • It boots to a logo and no furtherSometimes the storage and sometimes software. The two have very different odds.
  • It was dropped and has not started sinceSay so. Physical damage changes the route entirely.
  • It went in waterTime matters here more than anywhere. The sooner it is opened and cleaned the more survives.
Before you spend anything

Is it definitely the storage?

Recovery and repair are not the same job, and doing them in the wrong order can cost you both.

IfThe phone is repairable
Repair it first. A working phone gives up its data far more easily and cheaply than a dead one.
IfThe storage chip itself is damaged
Be prepared for the answer to be no. We will say so plainly rather than charging you to find out slowly.
IfIt still powers on at all
Start there. A device that boots, even badly, is far more likely to give its data up than one that does not.
IfIt has been repeatedly powered on since it failed
Tell us how many times. Repeated attempts on failing storage reduce the odds and we would rather know.
IfThe account password is not known
Say so before we start. There are limits to what anybody can do with a device nobody can sign into, and it is better to know that up front.

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?

Where Apple supplies a service part for this component, that is what goes in. Where it does not, we fit premium aftermarket and say so. Which of the two you are getting is settled before you agree to anything, and the 360-day warranty does not change between them.

We will not describe a part as genuine, original or Apple 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 €25 includes

    • An assessment of what is recoverable before you commit
    • Recovery attempted to a drive or a device you provide
    • A clear answer when something cannot be recovered
    • Nothing charged for data we cannot get back

    You will not find work on the bill you did not agree to. If something else shows up while the phone is open, we stop and ask rather than deciding for you.

    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

    Before a part is ordered we establish what has really gone wrong. It is free, and it is the reason people do not leave here having paid for the wrong thing.

    You approve the price

    The price is confirmed to you before anything begins, and it does not move afterwards unless you agree to something else.

    The repair is carried out

    Done at our Drumcondra bench by the technicians who do this every day.

    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.

    What happens to what is on it?

    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

    iPhone 17 Pro Max screen questions.

    €25, 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, and anybody who says otherwise is guessing. If the storage itself is damaged the answer can be no. We assess first, tell you honestly what the odds are, and you decide before spending anything.

    Not for the data. If we cannot get it back you do not pay for the recovery.

    Usually, yes, and where the phone is repairable that is what we recommend. A working phone hands over its data easily. Recovery from a dead one is specialist work and it costs more.

    Nothing. No fix, no fee applies here as it does everywhere else in the shop.

    Yes. We look at what we need to confirm the recovery worked and nothing else, and the device and its copy go back to you.

    iMEND is an independent repair service. Brand and model names are used only to describe the devices we repair. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or an authorised service provider for any manufacturer.

    Why bring it here

    An independent workshop, not a kiosk.

    We are a dedicated repair bench in Dublin 3. That means we take on work authorised channels turn away, and we tell you honestly when something is not worth fixing.

    Diagnosed, not guessed

    Every device is tested before we quote, so you are not paying for a part that was never the problem.

    Parts that last

    Genuine or OEM-grade components chosen for your model. We tell you which is going in before we start.

    Your data stays yours

    Hardware-only repairs. We never read, copy or move anything on your device.

    No fix, no fee

    If we cannot repair it, there is nothing to pay. No diagnostic fee, no handling charge.

    The screen stopped working on my iPhone 13 mini - it had recently been repaired elsewhere. I got a warm welcome in the shop, and a phone to borrow while mine was in for diagnostics and repair. An issue with the battery was also detected and I am very happy with the new screen and battery and appreciated the excellent service and communication.
