4 questions

How long do most repairs take?

Many common repairs, including iPhone screen and battery replacements, are completed the same day—often in 30–60 minutes when the part is in stock. Timing depends on the device and repair.

What devices do you repair?

We work on iPhones, Samsung and other Android phones, iPads and tablets, MacBooks and laptops, Apple Watches, and many gaming systems. Contact us if you have another device.

Can you repair water-damaged devices?

We offer water-damage diagnostics and treatment. Results depend on the extent of the damage, and recovery cannot be guaranteed.

Do I need an appointment?

No. Walk-ins are welcome during business hours; appointments are optional.

Pricing & process

Quotes, diagnostics, deposits and what happens next.

7 questions

What happens when I bring in a device?

We inspect its condition and test key functions, then explain the recommended repair and price before work begins.

Do you charge for diagnostics?

Most diagnostics are free when paired with a repair. Advanced board-level evaluations may have a fee, which we’ll explain beforehand.

What if the repair does not solve the issue?

We’ll review the results with you and discuss next steps. If a replacement part does not resolve the issue, we generally won’t charge for that unsuccessful repair attempt; special cases will be explained before work starts.

How much do repairs cost?

Price depends on the model and repair. We provide a quote before starting.

Do you price match?

Due to our high quality parts and work, we do not price match.

Do you require a deposit?

Some repairs and special-order parts require a non-refundable deposit to secure the parts. We’ll confirm any deposit before ordering.

Do you offer business or bulk repairs?

Yes. We work with schools, small businesses, and organizations that need recurring device repair or maintenance. Contact us to discuss volume pricing.

Parts & warranty

Repair coverage, existing parts and Covrd Screen protection.

5 questions

Do you use quality parts?

We use premium-grade parts selected for the device and repair, and eligible repairs include a limited parts and labor warranty.

Will an independent repair void my manufacturer warranty?

Using an independent repair shop or third-party part does not, by itself, void a manufacturer’s warranty. A manufacturer may deny coverage for damage caused by a repair or part. Check your warranty terms or ask the manufacturer about your specific coverage.

What does the repair warranty cover?

Eligible warranty coverage applies to defects in parts, installation issues, and related malfunctions. Damage from drops, liquid, cracked screens, or bent frames is not covered. Ask us for the warranty terms for your repair.

What does the Covrd Screen accidental damage warranty cover?

Eligible screen repairs are covered for 1 year against accidental damage that breaks the screen. For the first 90 days there is a $99 deductible, if the screen is damaged after the first 90 days there is no deductible for the repair.

Can you repair a phone that already has an aftermarket part?

Often, yes. We’ll inspect the device and explain available options; the existing part may affect the repair or result.

Selling your device

Offers, eligibility, payment and what to bring.

5 questions

What devices do you buy?

We buy eligible iPhones, Samsung and Google phones, iPads, MacBooks, laptops, Apple Watches, gaming consoles, and other electronics. Send us a few photos if you are unsure whether we can make an offer.

How do I get a buyback quote?

Send the model, storage size, carrier (if applicable), clear photos, and notes about damage or condition. We’ll review the details and respond with an offer.

Do you pay cash?

We offer same-day cash or electronic payment, subject to the device and transaction requirements.

Can I sell a locked device?

Possibly. Eligibility and value depend on the type and status of the lock. Contact us with the model and details before visiting.

What should I bring when selling a device?

Bring the device and a valid ID. A charger, box, or accessories are optional and may affect the offer.

Troubleshooting

A few safe first steps and when to get help.

3 questions

My phone won’t charge. What can I try?

Try a known-good cable and charger, restart the phone, and check the port for visible debris. Avoid putting metal tools into the port. If it still won’t charge, bring it in for diagnosis.

My phone is slow. Can you help?

Yes. A worn battery, low storage, software issue, or background process can slow a phone down. We can help identify the cause and explain repair options.

Can you fix a device with no display or no power?

We can diagnose it. Whether it can be repaired depends on the device and the extent of any board or liquid damage.
