Common questions.

We quote the MacBook Air (M2) 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 a part needs ordering we tell you at the counter, before you commit.

The MacBook Air (M2) came out in 2022, which puts it in the range where a single repair usually buys years rather than months. A screen or a battery costs a fraction of a replacement handset, and you keep everything already set up on it.

On a laptop or console that is almost always dust packed into the heatsink, plus thermal paste that has dried out after a few years. Both are serviceable. Left alone the heat shortens the life of everything around it.

That points at the battery or something drawing current it should not. Worth a free diagnostic rather than waiting, particularly if it is also losing charge quickly.

360 days on parts and workmanship. If the same fault comes back and it was not caused by new damage, we repair it again at no cost. Accidental damage, liquid damage after the repair and cracked glass are not covered.

Saturday 10am to 5pm, Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm, closed Sunday. No appointment needed on any of those days.

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.

Both. A lot of MacBook faults that are quoted as a full logic board elsewhere are a single component, and we repair at that level under a microscope. It is usually a fraction of the cost of a board swap.

For common faults on common models, yes, and the price is on the page you are reading. For anything with no clear symptom, liquid damage especially, nobody can price it honestly without opening it, so we do that for free first.

Usually. A phone that shows nothing is often a phone whose screen is dead rather than a phone that is dead, and the two look identical from the outside. Finding out which is free.

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.

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.

What you are paying for

Over a decade of the same job.

An independent shop on Richmond Road that has been repairing phones, tablets, laptops and consoles for the same city for more than ten years.

Most repairs while you wait

15 to 45 minutes covers the majority of phone screen and battery work, because the parts are on the shelf.

Tested before it goes back

Cameras, sensors, buttons, speakers and a real call. A fitted part is halfway, not finished.

360 days of cover

On the part and on the workmanship, at every price tier. Same fault back, same repair, no charge.

Free to find out

The diagnostic costs nothing whether you go ahead or not, and there is nothing to pay if we cannot fix it.

The order of things

Diagnose first, quote second.

Describe the symptom

You do not need to know what the part is called. What it does, when it started and whether it was dropped or got wet tells us most of it.

Plain terms are fine

The device gets tested

Every one is checked before a price is given, so nobody pays for a component that was working the whole time. Nothing is opened without your say-so.

Nothing to pay

Fixed, checked, handed back

Buttons, cameras, sensors, speakers and a real call, tested before it leaves. Then 360 days of cover on the part and the work.

Tested end to end
