Same day phone repair service

Many screen and battery jobs complete the same day, subject to booking time, parts on hand, and the extent of the damage.
Our technician assesses the phone on arrival, confirms the quote, and begins work immediately if parts are in stock. We complete a post-repair test so touch, camera, and speakers behave correctly. You leave with a working device and clear care advice.

Example: a customer drops an iPhone 12 at 10 am in Maroochydore. We start once the new screen passes checks, and the phone is usually ready within an hour. Water damage or bent frames can extend timing because we stabilise the board and replace seals.

What to expect today

Quick check-in and fault confirmation.
Transparent quote before repair.
Functional testing for calls, Wi-Fi, and camera.

How fast is a screen replacement

Simple iPhone screens are often completed within an hour when parts are available. Complex models or frame damage can extend time.

Do you use quality parts

We use high-quality parts aligned to your model. If genuine options apply to Apple or Samsung, we will discuss availability and lead times.

Is my data safe during repair

Repairs target hardware. We do not access personal content unless you ask for backup help. Bring your passcode for testing.

Can you fix water damage the same day

We can start same day, but severe liquid damage may need board cleaning and observation, which can take longer.

What we repair on the day

We complete common mobile phone repairs like screen replacement, battery replacement, and charging port faults within hours when parts are in stock.
Technicians open, replace, and reseal assemblies, then run diagnostics. We verify touch, brightness, speakers, microphones, and button response so you can call, text, and navigate immediately.

Example: a Samsung Galaxy with a weak Electric battery fails by midday. We fit a new battery, reattach adhesive, and test charge rates and screen colour before return.

iPhone screen repair and popular models

We replace cracked iPhone screens the same day for current models when parts are available and the frame is straight.
Apple Inc. designs tightly bonded displays that require calibrated fitting. Our technician transfers sensors, reseats brackets, and checks True Tone if supported. The phone boots, iOS runs tests, and you review touch and colour before paying.

Example: iPhone 11 with a spiderweb crack from Mooloolaba arrives at 2 pm. We inspect the LCD or OLED, confirm no board damage, and complete the swap within the hour when stock is ready.

iPhone models we commonly service

iPhone 8 to iPhone 14 families.
Button and camera issues on older iPhones.

Care tips after a new screen

Fit a screen protector today.
Use a case that lifts edges above the glass.

Samsung and Android phone repairs

Many Samsung and Android repairs complete the same day, with timelines varying by model, adhesive cure time, and part availability.
Samsung Galaxy devices often require rear glass removal and heat-managed separation. We protect the camera, replace the module, and reseal to maintain dust resistance. Android models from Oppo, Google, and others follow similar steps with different adhesives.

Example: a Samsung Galaxy A series with a cracked glass back and poor charging arrives in the morning. We rehouse the back, replace the charging sub-board, and test on Android operating system diagnostics.

Android services

Charging and USB-C board replacement.
Speaker, mic, and camera repairs.

Tablet and iPad repairs

iPad and tablet jobs can be same day for simple faults, but adhesive curing and parts logistics may extend turnaround.
Tablet computer displays use large adhesive areas that need careful heat cycles. We replace glass and digitisers, then set clamps so lift does not reoccur. Where possible, we finish the same day; otherwise we agree a pickup time.

Example: an iPad 9 with a shattered glass but intact LCD arrives early. We replace the glass, cure adhesive, and perform button and camera tests before collection.

Common tablet fixes

iPad glass replacement.
Battery replacement for iPad and Android tablets.
Charging and button repairs.

Plan your drop-off

Bring the charger for power tests.
Allow extra time for adhesive cure.
Ask about loan options if urgent.

What affects repair time and price

Repair time and price depend on model, part quality, stock levels, the extent of damage, and diagnostic outcomes after opening.
A bent frame or hidden water damage can add parts and time. Higher-end OLED panels cost more than LCD. When parts need to be ordered, we schedule the earliest fitting slot and keep you updated by Email or SMS.

Key factors

Model and part type LCD vs OLED; single board vs sub-board.
Stock on hand local inventory reduces wait time.
Damage extent frame bends and water ingress add steps.
Testing and rework ensures a reliable result.

Price and time signals

If a phone warms quickly, expect board diagnostics.
If Face ID or cameras fail, extra alignment is required.
If back glass is cracked, allow for safe separation.

When this may not be the right fit

Severe water damage, missing parts, or unsupported models may require longer timelines or specialist board-level work.
If your device cannot power on for testing, we may need staged recovery. If warranty constraints apply, your manufacturer policy could require an authorised pathway that changes parts choices and timelines.

Alternatives we can discuss

Board repair referral when corrosion is extensive.
Temporary phone options to keep you connected.
Data-first recovery if the handset is not economical to fix.

How to judge if you need this now or later

Repair now if the phone affects work, safety, or banking, or if a cracked display risks cuts or further damage. Wait if the issue is cosmetic and we need to order a part for best pricing.
If you commute or rely on maps, a same-day fix prevents disruption. If the phone is a secondary device, booking a next-day slot may suit your schedule.

Simple rule

Urgent: screen shattered, battery swelling, no charging.
Later: light crack, all functions normal, part on backorder.
