The MacBook Pro 15-inch (Intel) came out in 2019, with a 15.4 inch Retina LCD display and the Intel Core i7 or i9 chip. The ports are Four Thunderbolt 3 and headphone and it unlocks with Touch ID at the end of the Touch Bar. There is an aluminium frame. The last 15-inch MacBook Pro, with the Touch Bar and four USB-C ports and nothing else. It was replaced by the 16-inch in late 2019. Ireland gets the A1990.

What this fixes
What an overheating & cleaning actually fixes.
- Fans loud constantly
- Shuts down under load
- Hot to touch
- Performance throttling
What parts do we fit?
Two tiers, and you choose knowing which is which: a genuine Apple service part where one is made for this component, or premium aftermarket where none is. The warranty is 360 days on either.
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 €80 includes
- Full internal clean
- Thermal paste renewed where applicable
- Temperature tested under load
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.
Diagnostics from €25. A clean-up check is free.
Dublin collection and return is available on weekdays if you cannot make it in. Nothing about the price or the cover changes because the courier brought it.
How we do it
From the counter to back in your hand.
Diagnostic
We confirm what has actually failed before anything is ordered or opened. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.
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
Collected from Drumcondra, or returned to your door if we picked it up. Covered for 360 days.
What happens to what is on it?
We are replacing a part, not reading a phone. Your photos, messages and accounts are not something this job touches.
The one place it comes up is testing. A repair is not finished until it has been used, and using a locked device means a passcode. You are welcome to withhold it, and we will tell you which checks that leaves undone rather than quietly skipping them. A passcode you do give us lives on a paper docket that gets shredded, never in a database.
Back it up first if you can. A device that has taken a knock has had its storage shaken whether or not anything looks wrong, and a backup is free insurance against the day that matters.
What about the water resistance?
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 from €25, 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.

MacBook Pro 15-inch (Intel) screen questions.
€80, 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.
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.
A clean-up check is free. Any other diagnostic on the MacBook Pro 15-inch (Intel) is from €25, and you are told the cost before it starts. No additional paid work happens without your approval.
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 diagnostic rather than waiting, particularly if it is also losing charge quickly.
Yes. It makes no difference where a device came from, whether it was bought here, abroad or second hand. Bring it in.
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.
On older models, yes. On Apple silicon and most recent Intel MacBooks, memory and storage are soldered to the board and cannot be changed. Tell us the model and we will say straight away.
Most of the time, yes, if we have the part on the shelf. That covers common iPhone and Galaxy screens and batteries. Ring ahead on 085 200 1155 with your model if you are coming across the city and want to be sure.
Saturday 10am to 5pm, Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm, closed Sunday. No appointment needed on any of those days.
Card or cash at the counter when you collect. You get a firm price before any work starts, and it does not change unless we find something else and you agree to it first.
Bring it in and we do it again at no cost, for 360 days from the repair, on the part and the workmanship both. That does not cover new accidental damage, which we will always be straight with you about.
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.

Best place, best people
The staff are very good and helpful at imend phone repair shop in Drumcondra.
Excellent service and the staff were so friendly and helpful. My sons Nintendo controller broke and they went above and beyond to fix it. Would definitely go back.
Excellent experience with the team in imend. My husband 50th birthday present was a phone charger and holder for your car and it wouldn't stay attached to his Audi dash. The guys in imend put two devices together to get it working. Very happy Hubbie and wife- lovely guys to work with and they even threw in a birthday charging gift.
Great shop, very good deals , first time I came here very good service, highly recommend this imend drumcondra store.
Excellent service , got a plug and a lead for 25 euro excellent value, will definitely return and become a regular client!
