A Smarter Repair Option

Keep Your Original Display When The Device Allows It

Glass-only replacement isn't suitable for every phone or every type of damage. If the OLED/LCD, touch function or other components are damaged, a full screen replacement may be needed. We'll assess your device and explain the options before you decide.

Original Display Preservation

Glass-Only Screen Replacement

Where suitable, replace damaged outer glass while retaining the original display panel. Is the outer glass cracked but the display still working? On compatible devices, glass-only refurbishment may be an option instead of replacing the entire screen assembly.

  • Model and screen condition assessment We check the device and display first to confirm OLED touch integrity.
  • Lower-cost alternative to a full display assembly We explain suitable repair options and transparent pricing upfront.
  • Helps reduce electronic waste Keeping your original factory display may reduce unnecessary e-waste.
Component-Level Tech

Motherboard & Microsoldering

Component-level diagnostics for faults that may need specialist attention. Our Gore lab performs precision micro-soldering under high-magnification microscopes to restore logic boards.

  • No-power and boot issues Diagnosis and micro-component repairs for dead devices or boot loops.
  • Charging and board-level faults Repair damaged charging ICs, blown power filters, and battery lines.
  • Connector and small-component repair Replace sheared FPC ribbon sockets, micro-switches, and surface chips.
PlayStation · Xbox · Switch

Gaming Consoles

Assessment for supported consoles, including selected HDMI, power, cooling and other hardware faults.

  • Selected HDMI port repair Fix bent pins, loose video sockets, and no-signal TV output on PS5 & Xbox.
  • Power & unexpected shutoff issues Diagnose dead power supply blocks, short circuits, and sudden console shutoffs.
  • Cooling & internal overheating Thermal paste renewal, cooling fan replacement, and deep internal dust cleaning.
  • Nintendo Switch & handheld repairs USB-C charging docks, broken LCD touch screens, and analog stick drift fixes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our repair process, turnaround times, and warranty.

How long does a phone screen or battery repair take?
Most standard screen and battery replacements are completed within 30 to 45 minutes right in our Gore workshop. If you walk in, you can usually browse Main Street and pick it up the same day!
Can you replace just the outer cracked glass instead of the entire screen?
Yes! Where suitable, on compatible smartphones and tablets where the underlying OLED/LCD and touch function remain undamaged, glass-only refurbishment allows us to replace just the broken outer glass while preserving your original factory display panel. It is a lower-cost, eco-friendly alternative to a full display assembly. Walk in for a $0 free diagnostic check to see if your screen qualifies.
Do I need to make an appointment before coming in?
No appointment is needed! You can walk in at 57 Main Street, Gore anytime during our opening hours (Mon–Fri 9:00am–5:30pm, Sat 10:00am–3:30pm). If you'd like to check parts availability for rare models first, call us on 03 208 9999 or chat with us on WhatsApp at 027 682 0001.
How much will my repair cost?
Our initial diagnostic assessment is 100% free ($0). Once we examine your device and determine the fault, we provide a transparent, fixed price quote before any work starts. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will I lose any data, photos, or apps on my phone?
For standard hardware repairs (such as screens, batteries, charging ports, and camera replacements), your data is completely untouched. For major software recovery or severe motherboard faults, we always discuss backup options with you beforehand.
What should I do if my phone was dropped in water?
Turn it off immediately and DO NOT plug it into a charger. Avoid the rice trick, which causes internal corrosion. Bring it directly to 57 Main Street, Gore. We open the device, perform an ultrasonic chemical wash to remove minerals, and dry all components.
Do you repair laptops and MacBooks as well?
Yes! We repair Apple MacBook Pro & Air laptops, Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, and Acer machines. We handle broken screens, battery swelling, charging socket repairs, SSD storage upgrades, and Windows / macOS reinstalls.
Do you repair gaming consoles like PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch?
Yes! We provide assessment and hardware repairs for supported gaming consoles. This includes replacing damaged HDMI ports (no signal on TV), fixing power supply faults and sudden game shutdowns, replacing faulty cooling fans and renewing thermal paste for overheating, and repairing Nintendo Switch USB-C ports, screens, and joy-cons. Bring your console into 57 Main Street, Gore for a $0 free diagnosis!
