Phone Repair Services We Offer in St Helens
Whether your screen is cracked, your battery drains by lunchtime, or your charging port has stopped working, we’ve seen it all and fixed it all. Here’s what we repair every day:
A cracked screen is the most common phone issue we fix in St Helens and the most important to sort quickly. What starts as a hairline crack spreads fast. Once it reaches the LCD or OLED layer underneath, the repair cost jumps significantly. A screen job that’s £45 today can become a £120 job in two weeks.
We replace screens on all iPhone models (iPhone 6 through iPhone 17 Pro Max), the full Samsung Galaxy S and A series, OnePlus, Huawei, Google Pixel, Motorola, Sony Xperia, and more. We use quality replacement panels, not the cheap imported screens that go yellow or lose touch sensitivity after a month.
Battery Replacement
If your phone barely makes it past midday, or if it shuts down at 30%, the battery is almost certainly the problem. Phone batteries degrade naturally, most lose significant capacity after 500 charge cycles, which is roughly 18 months to 2 years of regular use.
A battery replacement at Gadgets n Repair is a fraction of the cost of a new handset, and it genuinely makes your phone feel like new again. We carry batteries for all major phone brands in stock, so most replacements are done within the hour. No need to leave your phone overnight.
Charging Port Repair & Replacement
If you find yourself wiggling the cable at a particular angle just to get your phone charging, the charging port is damaged or has lint and debris packed inside it. This is one of those issues people ignore until the phone simply won’t charge at all, don’t let it get that far.
We clean, repair, or replace USB-C and Lightning charging ports quickly and affordably. In many cases, a simple professional cleaning sorts the problem entirely, at minimal cost.
Dropped your phone down the toilet? Caught in the rain? Even ‘water-resistant’ phones can suffer liquid damage and the damage gets worse every hour you leave it. If your phone has had any contact with water, bring it to us as soon as possible.
Bilal carries out a full liquid damage assessment, opening the device, removing corrosion, cleaning the logic board, and drying components properly. This is not a job for a bag of rice. The quicker you act, the better the chances of a full recovery.
Camera Repair
A blurry, black, or cracked camera module doesn’t just ruin your photos, it reduces the value of your handset significantly. We replace front and rear camera modules on iPhone and Samsung devices, and carry out focus calibration to ensure the camera performs properly after replacement.
Speaker & Microphone Repair
Can’t hear your calls clearly? People on the other end can’t hear you? Muffled audio is often caused by a failing speaker or blocked microphone grille. We diagnose and replace speaker modules and microphones across a wide range of devices.
Switching network providers or buying a second-hand phone that’s locked? We can unlock most phones quickly and safely, so you can use any UK or international SIM. Unlocking is permanent and doesn’t affect your phone’s software or warranty.
Software Issues & Factory Reset
Phone running unbearably slow? Apps crashing constantly? Getting stuck in a boot loop? Sometimes the issue is software, not hardware. We can run a proper diagnostic, remove malware, fix system errors, or perform a clean factory reset while helping you back up your important data first.
Why St Helens Residents Choose Gadgets n Repair
There’s no shortage of repair options in St Helens, so why do hundreds of local people keep coming back to us, and recommending us to their friends and family? Here’s the honest answer:
Bilal Fixes Your Phone Personally — Not a Rotating Roster of Strangers
At big chain repair shops, you hand your phone to whoever’s on shift that day. At Gadgets n Repair, Bilal personally handles your device. He’s been repairing phones for years, has worked on thousands of devices, and takes genuine pride in the quality of every repair. When you collect your phone, you know exactly who fixed it and how.
This matters more than people realise. Phone repair requires precision and care. One careless moment, a stripped screw, a poorly seated connector, a contaminated screen adhesive and what should be a straightforward job turns into a bigger problem. Bilal doesn’t rush jobs, and he doesn’t cut corners.
Quality Parts — Not the Cheap Ones That Fail in 3 Months
This is where a lot of budget repair shops catch you out. They quote you a low price, use poor-quality screen panels or third-party batteries that degrade rapidly, and three months later you’re back where you started or worse. We don’t do that.
We use quality replacement components. For screens, this means panels with accurate colour reproduction, proper brightness levels, and responsive touch. For batteries, this means cells with genuine capacity ratings, not inflated figures on cheap Chinese imports. You’re not just paying for the repair, you’re paying for it to actually last.
1-Year Warranty on Screen Repairs
Our competitors offer 3 months. We offer 12. That’s our confidence in the quality of parts we use and the standard of our workmanship. If your screen develops a fault due to the repair, not physical damage, within a year, we’ll sort it at no charge.
Same-Day, Often Within 60 Minutes
Most screen repairs, battery replacements, and charging port jobs are completed within an hour. You don’t need to be without your phone for days. For the vast majority of common repairs, you can hand your phone over, grab a coffee, and come back to a fully repaired device.
No-Fix, No-Fee — Simple as That
If we take a look and we can’t fix the problem, you don’t pay anything. We’ll give you an honest assessment of the situation and let you decide how to proceed. No call-out fees, no diagnostic charges if we can’t help.
Free Screen Protector With Every Repair
Every phone repair includes a free screen protector fitted at no extra cost. It’s a small thing, but it matters, your freshly repaired screen deserves proper protection from day one.
Free Pickup & Delivery in St Helens

How the Repair Process Works — Start to Finish
Whether your screen is cracked, your battery drains by lunchtime, or your charging port has stopped working, we’ve seen it all and fixed it all. Here’s what we repair every day:
Step 1 — Tell Us What's Wrong (Free)
Walk in, call us, or send a WhatsApp message describing the problem. We’ll give you an honest quote upfront, no vague estimates that balloon once the work starts. If you’re not sure what’s wrong, bring the phone in and Bilal will run a free diagnostic on the spot.

Step 3 — Quality Check Before Handover
Before we give you your phone back, Bilal runs a full quality check, testing the screen, touch response, camera, speakers, microphone, and charging. We don’t hand back phones until we’re satisfied they’re working properly. You shouldn’t have to find a fault we missed.
Step 4 — Collect & Go, Covered by Your Warranty
Collect your phone, check it yourself, and leave happy. Your repair is covered by our warranty from the moment you walk out, 12 months for screen repairs, 3 months for other services. Any issue with the repair itself, come straight back and we’ll sort it.

Frequently Asked Questions
For most repairs, no appointment is needed, just walk in during opening hours. For more complex jobs or if you'd prefer a guaranteed slot, you can book in advance via WhatsApp or our website. We'll always accommodate you as quickly as possible.
In the vast majority of cases, yes, significantly. A screen repair for £50–£80 versus a new handset at £600–£1,200 is not a difficult calculation. Even battery replacements that make an aging phone feel entirely new again cost a fraction of an upgrade. Bilal will give you an honest assessment, if a repair genuinely isn't worth it for your specific situation, he'll tell you.
Often, yes, but speed is everything. The longer liquid sits inside the device, the more corrosion develops on the components. If your phone has been in water, bring it to us immediately. Turn it off, don't try to charge it, and get it to us as soon as you can. We'll carry out a free assessment and give you a realistic picture of what's recoverable.
If we can't fix it, you pay nothing, our no-fix, no-fee policy is absolute. We'll also let you know about any trade-in value the device might still have, or whether data recovery is a realistic option if your primary concern is getting your photos, contacts, or messages back.
We use quality replacement parts. For certain premium repairs, genuine OEM components are available at a price difference, we'll discuss the options with you. We never install parts without telling you what they are. You have the right to know exactly what's going into your device.
If your phone is still under Apple, Samsung, or other manufacturer warranty, a third-party repair will typically void that warranty. For devices still covered, we'd recommend contacting the manufacturer directly first. If the manufacturer warranty has expired or doesn't cover your specific issue (accidental damage, for instance, is usually excluded), we're ready to help.
Yes. If your phone isn't worth repairing, or you're upgrading, bring it in and we'll assess it. We pay fair prices for working and non-working devices, you leave with cash in hand rather than an old phone gathering dust in a drawer.
