Is this the right repair?

Book this if you are seeing any of the following on your PlayStation 4.

  • Fans loud constantly
  • Shuts down under load
  • Hot to touch
  • Performance throttling

Not sure, or more than one fault? Our technicians confirm the cause with a free diagnostic before any work starts.

What the price includes

  • Full internal clean
  • Thermal paste renewed where applicable
  • Temperature tested under load

No additional paid work is carried out without your approval. If we find something else, we explain it and confirm the cost first.

The difference

The bench is in the building.

Nothing here is posted to a depot in another country and nothing is done by somebody you cannot talk to. That is why we can look at a device again the next morning if it needs it.

Repairs others refuse

Board-level work, older models and devices written off elsewhere. Refused is not the same as unrepairable.

A tier you choose

Genuine, service or premium aftermarket, named and priced before you agree to anything.

Nothing read, nothing kept

A repair is a hardware job. There is deliberately no field in our system for a device passcode.

Told when to walk away

When a repair costs more than the device is worth, we say so. It loses us the job and keeps the customer.

Asked all the time

Common questions.

We quote the PlayStation 4 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.

Often yes, and the sums are better than people expect. Parts for the PlayStation 4 are widely supplied and cost less than they did when it was the current model, so the repair is cheaper now than it would have been then. We quote it against what the device is worth and say plainly if it does not add up.

Dust in the heatsink and dried thermal paste, in almost every case. We strip it, clean the cooling path, repaste and reassemble. It is a same-day job and the drop in fan noise is immediate.

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.

That depends on what the device is worth and what the repair costs, and we will tell you honestly when the sums do not work. Turning away a job we could have charged for is the reason people come back.

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.

PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series S and X, and Nintendo Switch including Lite and OLED. HDMI ports, controller drift, overheating, fans, storage and cleaning.

Walk in. We are at 4 Richmond Road, Drumcondra, Dublin 3, open Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm and Saturday 10am to 5pm. Closed Sunday. You can also book online and we will confirm a slot, or ask us to collect the device anywhere in Dublin, Monday to Friday.

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

No. The diagnostic is free whether you go ahead with the repair or not, and that is true for the quick check at the counter and the longer one on the bench.

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

Michael o'neillTrustpilot

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.
