Fast and Affordable iPhone Repairs

While it might be tempting to DIY anything and everything, DIY-ing tech repairs usually end in failure if you don’t know what you’re doing. That’s why professional iPhone repairs are so crucial – you get your device back in one piece and in perfect working order.

How Many Years Should an iPhone Battery Last?

Going to an authorised repair shop means that you will get the best service with the best parts available. As a result, your device will work like it’s brand-new, and you can say goodbye to all the problems associated with cheap parts and services.

Common iPhone Issues and Solutions

We know just how frustrating it can be to deal with all kinds of tech issues yourself. However, there are usually things that you can do at home to help you help yourself before needing to call up. Read through some of the most common iPhone issues, and learn about some solutions that we have to offer.

Screen Damage: From Minor Cracks to Full Screen Replacement

Screen damage comes in many forms, from screen burn-in to cracks and shattered glass. These are all common issues, as screens can break very easily when we aren’t careful when using them. For this reason, we will always recommend protecting your device with quality cases and screen protectors, because no one wants to pay for these costly repairs.

 

Not all screen damage needs to be repaired, and we suggest waiting until the damage is notable or frustrating enough for you to bring your device into a shop. This means that superficial damage is better left untouched. 

 

However, if there is superficial damage that is annoying you, there are various DIY methods that you could try, like the ones listed in this article about iPhone screen repairs. Screen repairs can cost anywhere from £20 up to £550, so think before you make an appointment!

Battery Problems: Identifying and Fixing Battery Health Issues

You will be able to look at your battery’s health by going to Settings → Battery → Battery Health & Charging. Here, there will be information regarding your battery’s overall health, including the capacity and peak performance, and if it requires a service or not.

 

If your battery is degrading, you will notice that: 
  • Your phone is very hot for no real reason 
  • Increased time needed for apps to launch
  • The screen ‘stutters’ or freezes when you are scrolling 
  • Restarting the phone takes longer than it should or used to 
  • The battery drains faster than it used to when you use the device normally 

Depending on your iPhone model, a battery replacement can cost between £25–£65, but there are things that you can do to make it last longer. 

Water damage: Steps for Recovery and Repair Costs

It’s important to note that any iPhone older than the iPhone 7 is not considered waterproof. When it comes to waterproof devices, there are different standards and ratings to consider. However, regarding recovery and repair, there are some simple steps that you should take if your device has come into contact with water.

Follow these steps:

  1. Remove your iPhone from the water immediately 
  2. Get the iPhone out of its case
  3. Get a clean and dry cloth or soft towel and gently wipe off all the liquid that you can reach
  4. Direct the lightning port down and give your phone a gentle shake, tapping it to remove any excess water that might have found its way into the speakers and port
  5. Leave the iPhone somewhere warm and dry to dry out. If you have a fan, place it in front of that with the lightning port facing it, but make sure the fan is not heated

As for the repair costs for water damage, this will be between £35–£65 depending on the model. Please remember that not all water damage can be fixed, though, and if the damage has already occurred, you may need to purchase a new device. 

Software Glitches: Troubleshooting and Fixing Common Software Problems

In most cases, a software glitch could easily be resolved with the classic ‘turn it off and on again’ rule via force restarting your device. This usually boots the iPhone and gets it working properly, but isn’t always the solution to every issue you might encounter.

 

Another key thing to do will be to make sure that your iPhone’s iOS is up-to-date and working properly, This can typically be done via the settings, but in a device that is glitching, you may need to opt for a different approach via Recovery Mode though iTunes on a PC or laptop. We have several blogs that include the steps for doing this, including this one about iPhones dropping calls or this one talking about why your iPhone might not be pairing with your car.

 

A few other common things you can try to resolve software glitches include:

  • Resetting all device settings
  • Reset your device and wipe all data (back your device up before doing this)

How to Book Your iPhone Repair

Below, we will go through some details on what you should know about repair centres, how to get your device repaired, and a few things to remember.

Finding an Authorised Repair Centre

It’s key to find an authorised and reputable repair centre for your iPhone repairs. This ensures that your device will get repaired and replaced with quality Apple parts that will last you for years to come without any negative side effects. Because we only work with the best quality parts, we can confidently offer you a 12-month warranty. 

 

If you live in Manchester and the surrounding area, imFixed will be the perfect fit for you, whether you’re at home, at work, or in a hotel. Just search ‘Apple iPhone repairs near me’, or ‘iPhone repairing services’ and see if we pop up!

The Booking Process: Online Scheduling, In-Store Appointments, and Mail-In Options

If you choose to get iPhone repairs at imFixed, you can get your device repaired at your location if you live within 15 miles of our repair shop by booking a 1-hour time slot for one of our skilled technicians to come to you. For anyone more than 15 miles away, our mail-in option could be the perfect fit. 

 

However, if you would like to bring your device into the shop in-person, all you need to do is pop into our repair shop with your device and any relevant information you think could help us. We aim to get anything from random shutdowns to no service issues repaired within the hour, but please remember that some things take longer than expected.

Preparing your iPhone for Repair: Backup and What to Expect

At imFixed, we will always recommend backing up your device before you bring it in for a repair (or mail it in). This is done to ensure that you do not lose anything during the repair process if something were to happen, and you can restore lost data. 

 

In fact, we would recommend regularly backing your device up using iTunes in case you damage your iPhone and cannot use it. This data can then be transferred to a new device, even an Android, and will ensure that none of your precious moments are lost.

 

Once you have backed up your device, you simply need to bring it into the repair shop and ask for an estimation for how long the repair will take. The process usually doesn’t take too long, but if specialised parts are needed, you might need to wait a week or more to get your iPhone back.

Cost of Repairs

Whether you have an iPhone with an unresponsive mute switch or your apps keep crashing, there will be solutions when you bring your device in for our skilled technicians to look at. However, the cost for different repairs can vary a lot based on the extent of the damage and the model that you’re bringing in.

 

At imFixed, we offer a Price Match Promise, we can either match or beat any genuine quote. As a company that takes price in our precise and cost-effective diagnosis and repair services, we only want the best for you, which is why we have affordable pricing and same-day repairs.

Estimating your Repair Costs: Screen Repairs, Battery Replacement, and Other Fixes

It can be challenging to estimate Apple repair costs for different iPhone repairs and different kinds of damage, as the prices vary greatly. Some prices are thankfully similar no matter the model. For example, there isn’t a huge difference between repairs for power buttons, earpieces, or water damage in different devices, whether they are new or old.

 

Below are the iPhone repairs price options that you're going to want to know about, from iPhone screen damage to vibration and microphone repairs. Lower costs linked to older iPhone models, and higher costs linked to newer iPhone models:

  • Screen: £20–£550
  • Back Cover: £25–£120
  • Front Camera: £25–£120
  • Rear Camera: £25–£150
  • Power Button: £25–£45
  • Battery Replacement: £25–£65
  • Full Diagnostic Service: £15
  • Charging Port: £45–£65
  • Wi-Fi Repair: £25–£100
  • Microphone: £25–£65
  • SIM Reader: £25–£65
  • Vibration: £20–£65 
  • Loudspeaker: £25–£100
  • Earpiece: £45–£65
  • Software: £25–£65
  • Water Damage: £35–£65

Our Apple repair estimates are generally lower than the Apple Store, and our iPhone repairing services are competitive.

Uncertainties in Pricing: Factors That Affect the Final Cost

Pricing can be difficult for iPhone repairs, and there are a handful of factors that play a role in the final cost. The most important factor that plays a role is the iPhone model. Older models are relatively inexpensive to repair, even for screens, but newer or more advanced models, like the iPhone 15 Pro Max or iPhone 16, will cost significantly more. 

 

Other factors that will impact the final cost will be the types of repairs required, and sometimes the extent of the damage. Some repairs, such as a screen replacement, are significantly more costly than a battery replacement or fixing the charging port.

 

If you are comparing the costs at different repair shops, there will be competitive prices to consider, too. For example, going to an Apple Store for repair will be more expensive than a repair shop like us. In some cases, costs will also be affected if the parts are not easily available or are specialised.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Below, we will go through some key FAQs that you should know about.

How Long do iPhone Repairs Take?

Most repairs take between 20 minutes to an hour. However, this can vary depending on the specific repair required, and the number of repairs that need to be done on an iPhone. 

Is it Worth Repairing My iPhone, or Should I Buy a New One?

It’s likely more worthwhile opting for iPhone repairs, unless the damage is extensive or the device is old. Repairing is better than replacing if you have a newer iPhone, as it would be more cost-efficient to repair your phone. However, if your iPhone is already several years old, or it has a lot of different problems, then getting a new phone might be the better choice.

Tips for Maintaining your iPhone Post-Repair

The best things you can do to maintain your iPhone post-repair includes protecting it with screen protectors and cases, but also managing battery usage. We also recommend that you take special care where and how you use the device to prevent liquid damage or other kinds of damage – for example, from sand.
