Short answer

Yes. We repair physical damage to phone motherboards, screens and batteries every day, including bent, smashed and liquid damaged phones. Payment is only requested after your data is recovered, and our success rate is 99%. Prices are subject to change.

My wife’s mobile phone was caught in a reclining chair and severely damaged when it was reclined. Are you able to retrieve photos for her, and what is the cost?

Yes, we specialize in repairing physical damage to motherboards, screens, batteries, and other phone components, whether bent, smashed, or liquid-damaged. This is our daily work; we repair at least 10 iPhones every day. They are often bent, damaged, run over by lawnmowers, or dropped in sewers or toilets. Whatever the damage, we can help.

This sounds like a relatively straightforward problem. Assuming the logic board is slightly bent, we will either repair it or perform a logic board transplant, which involves moving the chips to another phone. The standard service, as of today, is $800 Australian dollars. The logic board transplant service varies depending on the phone model, typically around $1300, but prices are subject to change on a case-by-case basis. These are current prices as of 2025. You are not required to pay anything upfront; payment is only requested upon successful data recovery. We achieve a 99% success rate in retrieving data. We only require the necessary time to complete the repair, and payment is due once all your data has been recovered.
