Frequently asked questions
Useful answers before you visit
For model-specific advice, send the exact model and clear photographs.
Do I need an appointment?+
Appointments are recommended for the quickest service, but both Bristol stores can also assess walk-in enquiries. Booking ahead is especially useful when a particular replacement part may need to be reserved.
Will my data be erased?+
Most hardware repairs do not require a reset, but every repair carries some data risk. Back up important information before handing over the device whenever possible. Data retention cannot be guaranteed.
How long will the repair take?+
Many common repairs may be completed the same day when the correct part is available. Complex faults, liquid damage and board-level work need diagnosis before an accurate timescale can be confirmed.
Is the repair covered by a warranty?+
Qualifying repairs include warranty protection for the fitted part and covered workmanship. Physical damage, liquid damage, misuse and unrelated faults are excluded. The exact terms are confirmed with your quotation.

Service-specific guidance
Tablet repair is not the same as phone repair
Larger bonded displays, frames and batteries can require more preparation and curing time than common phone repairs.
Glass-only versus full display
Some iPads separate touch glass and LCD while others use a fully laminated display. The model determines the correct repair route.
Bent frames
A distorted housing can prevent a new screen sitting safely and may need correction or replacement.
Battery safety
Tablet batteries are large and strongly bonded. Swelling should be treated carefully and the device should not be charged unnecessarily.
Accessories and testing
Bring the charger and, where relevant, Apple Pencil or keyboard accessories if the fault involves connection or charging.
