There is an aluminium frame. A flat-bodied 13 inch Pro with a Touch Bar above the keyboard and a fan inside, which the M1 Air does not have. Ireland gets the A2338.

What this fixes
What a free diagnostic actually fixes.
- It got worse after a repair somewhere elseWorth looking at properly rather than repeating the same repair.
- You do not know what is wrongPerfectly normal. Describing what it does is more useful to us than naming a repair.
- More than one thing is wrong at onceTwo faults together are usually one cause, and finding it is cheaper than fixing both.
- It works, then it does not, with no patternAn intermittent fault is the hardest thing to price without looking, which is exactly what this is for.
- Somebody else has already tried to fix itWorth starting from scratch. A device opened in a hurry often has more wrong with it than it arrived with.
- You want to know whether it is worth repairing at allA fair question and a common one. We will tell you when the answer is no.
Before you spend anything
Is it definitely a hardware fault?
A diagnostic is not a repair, it is the step that stops you paying for the wrong one.
IfOne clear symptom and an obvious cause
You probably do not need this. A cracked screen or a tired battery is priced on its own page and can be booked directly.
IfIt is a work phone and downtime matters
Tell us when you book. We look at those first and tell you early if it is going to take longer than a day.
IfIt is under manufacturer warranty
Go to them first and we will tell you so. A defect inside warranty should not cost you anything anywhere.
IfIt has been in water
That is a liquid damage assessment rather than a standard diagnostic, and it is a different piece of work.
IfYou want a written quote for insurance
Say so at the counter and we will do it that way from the start.
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.
The words genuine and Apple certified mean something specific and we only use them when they are true of the part in front of us. Anything else is described as premium aftermarket, plainly.
What the Free diagnostic includes
- A full inspection on the bench, free
- A written answer on what has failed
- A price before any work happens
- No fee if we cannot fix it
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.
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.
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
You get the exact figure before any work starts. Nothing else happens without asking you first.
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
The repaired function and the things around it are checked before we call you.
Back in your hands
Collected from Drumcondra, or returned to your door if we picked it up. Covered for 360 days.
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.
Power, charge and battery health
The three things that explain most faults before anything is opened.
Display, touch and every sensor
End to end, because a fault in one often points at something else entirely.
Cameras, speakers and microphones
All of them, so nothing turns up as a surprise a week later.
Ports and buttons
Including the ones you did not mention, since damage rarely lands in only one place.
Will my data be safe?
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.
Is it still water resistant afterwards?
After any repair, ours included, work on the assumption that the device is no longer water resistant.
The rating on the box was measured once, on a sealed unit, in controlled conditions. It was never a promise about the device three years later. Adhesive hardens, seals compress and a single drop can break the seal without leaving a mark you would notice.
We reseal with fresh adhesive and it does a real job: rain, splashes and a wet counter are all fine. A submerged phone is not, and we would rather say that plainly than let you find out.
If yours goes near water regularly, say so at the counter and we will tell you what the adhesive covers and what it does not.
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.

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 while you wait. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.
No. The diagnostic is free, you get told what has failed and what it costs, and there is no fee if we cannot fix it.
Then you pay nothing and take the phone away knowing what is wrong with it. That is a legitimate outcome and it happens often.
No. It is free, it is honest, and there is no fee if we cannot fix the device.
Usually the same day. Where a fault only shows itself under load we sometimes need to leave the device running, and we tell you that at the counter.
Then that is what we tell you, and you pay nothing. We would rather lose a repair than sell one that does not make sense.
