1. Can an iPhone with water damage be fixed?

Yes, water-damaged iPhones can often be repaired. Our technicians assess internal corrosion, short circuits, and damaged components to determine what repairs are necessary to restore functionality.

2. What should I do immediately after my iPhone gets wet?

Turn off the device immediately, do not charge it, and avoid using rice or heat. Bring it to a professional repair service as soon as possible for proper internal cleaning and inspection.

3. Do you repair all iPhone models with water damage?

Yes, we service all iPhone models including iPhone 14, 13, 12, 11, XR, XS, SE, and earlier versions. Each model is assessed individually for damage and repair options.

4. How do you fix water-damaged iPhones?

Our process includes a full diagnostic, ultrasonic cleaning of the internal board, corrosion removal, and part replacement as needed—such as the screen, battery, charging port, or motherboard components.

5. How long does diagnostic take?

Diagnostic is typically done in 24-72 hours depending on queue and severity of issue. Liquid damaged devices may take longer. We also offer expedited diagnostics services.

6. Can water damage cause issues even if the phone turns on?

Yes. Water damage can lead to hidden issues such as short circuits, battery drain, touchscreen glitches, audio problems, or eventual failure—even if the phone initially seems fine. A professional diagnostic is recommended.

7. How long does water damage repair take?

Repair times vary depending on the extent of damage. In many cases, initial diagnostics are completed within 24–48 hours. If parts are needed, additional time may be required.

8. Do you guarantee that a water-damaged iPhone can be fully restored?

While many water-damaged phones are repairable, success depends on how much internal damage occurred and how soon it was brought in. In some cases, full recovery may not be possible, but partial data or function recovery is.

9. What parts might need to be replaced in a water-damaged iPhone?

Commonly affected components include the screen, battery, charging port, internal board connections, and sometimes the logic board. All parts are tested and replaced based on the diagnostic findings.

In many cases, yes. If the internal storage is not critically damaged, we can attempt data recovery during the repair process. However, recovery is not guaranteed and depends on the extent of the damage.

12. Do water-resistant iPhones still get water damage?

Yes. Even water-resistant models (like iPhone 11 and newer) are not waterproof. Exposure to liquids can still cause internal damage, especially if seals are weakened or the device has prior wear.
