Water damaged iPad rescue and repair in Prague
Quick answer: A water damaged iPad can often be saved. Turn it off, do not charge it, and bring it in as soon as you can. Board cleaning after liquid contact starts at 1,490 CZK and diagnostics are free. The sooner we open and clean the board, the better the chance of saving it. We are at Jaromírova 576/34, Prague 2.
What to do right away
Turn the iPad off and do not charge it; charging spreads corrosion and short circuits across the board. Do not dry it in rice, it does not work. Corrosion advances by the hour, so bring the iPad in quickly.
How the rescue works
We start with free diagnostics, lift off the display and battery, clean the board under a microscope and check the power circuits one by one. Depending on what we find we replace the damaged parts, often the battery or the charging port. We give a 3-month warranty on a board repair. Part prices are in the iPad repair price list.
Come in or send it by post
Diagnostics are free and we tell you the price up front. Find us at Jaromírova 576/34, Prague 2 - Nusle, Mon-Fri 10:00-18:00.

How much does a water damaged iPad repair cost?
Board cleaning after liquid contact starts at 1,490 CZK. The cost of any parts depends on the damage; we tell you after free diagnostics.

Cleaning and diagnostics depend on the extent; with liquid damage expect days rather than hours. We confirm the timing after we open the board.
Are diagnostics free?
Yes. We assess it and tell you the price up front, and only repair after your approval.
