iPhone got
wet?
Act fast.
Time matters more than money with water damage. Corrosion starts inside the phone within hours. Bring it to us within 48 hours and we can usually save it — even if it powered off, even if it sat in rice all night, even if it’s already showing damage.
Power off immediately
Even if it still works. Active circuits + water = short circuits + permanent corrosion.
Don’t shake or charge it
Shaking spreads water inside. Charging while wet creates electrical shorts that fry the logic board.
Bring it to us within 48 hours
Sooner = better. Corrosion starts within hours and gets worse the longer water sits inside.
Don’t put it in rice
Rice doesn’t absorb water from inside the phone. It just delays you bringing it to a real repair shop.
Every kind of liquid damage.
Pool, ocean, toilet, coffee, beer, soup, washing machine — we’ve seen every scenario. Each one needs a slightly different cleaning protocol, but the playbook is the same: open it up, clean it, repair what’s broken.
Pool, ocean, lake
Saltwater and chlorinated water are far more corrosive than tap water. Salt crystallizes on contacts. We have specific cleaning solutions for both.
Toilet drops
Most common iPhone water damage scenario. Despite the gross factor, toilet water actually causes less corrosion than salt water — recovery rate is high.
Coffee, juice, beer, wine
Sugary or acidic liquids leave sticky residue that conducts electricity. Buttons stick, ports fail, charging refuses. We dissolve and clean.
Rain, snow, sweat
Smaller amounts but harder to detect. Often the iPhone seems fine until weeks later when the speaker dies or charging port stops working.
Washing machine cycle
Phone in a pocket, into the wash. The worst-case scenario — water + heat + agitation. Recovery depends on how long it ran. Bring it ASAP.
Sealed but stopped working
iPhone IP68 rated — should survive water in theory. But seals degrade with age. If your “water-resistant” iPhone died after a splash, we can help.
Three levels of repair. Honest pricing.
We diagnose first, then quote. About 60% of water-damaged iPhones only need Tier 1 cleaning. The rest need component-level work — but we’re transparent about what tier you’re in before any work starts.
- Full disassembly + ultrasonic cleaning
- Drying chamber treatment
- Reassembly + functionality test
- Free diagnostic if cleaning isn’t enough
- Everything in Tier 1
- Connector + IC corrosion removal
- Pin-level cleaning (microscope)
- Up to 2 simple component replacements
- Everything in Tier 1 + Tier 2
- Micro-soldering on damaged ICs
- Replacement of failed components
- Quote provided after diagnostic
Apple does not offer water damage repair — they replace the entire device for $399-$799 depending on model. We can usually save the phone for a fraction of that. Apple’s official guidance on liquid-damaged iPhones →
Component-level expertise.
Not just plug-and-pray.
Microscope micro-soldering
Most repair shops won’t touch board-level water damage. We do — with binocular microscopes and component-level soldering tools. We can replace individual chips Apple won’t even attempt.
Proper ultrasonic cleaning
Not just a wipe-down. We disassemble the phone fully and use ultrasonic baths with isopropyl alcohol. Removes water, salt, and corrosive residue that’s invisible to the naked eye.
Same-day diagnostic
Bring the iPhone in, we open it, we tell you the tier within hours. No “leave it for two weeks while we figure it out.” Walk in before noon, get a real quote by end of day.
No-fix-no-charge*
If we can’t restore basic function on a Tier 1 cleaning, we don’t charge. Tier 2 and 3 quoted upfront before work begins. Honest answer beats false hope.
Garantie 30 jours
If your phone fails again from the same root cause within 30 days, bring it back. We diagnose at no cost and either refund or re-repair depending on what failed.
