Microsmith Electronics provides device repairs for customers travelling from Portishead. Our Newport workshop is around 45–50 minutes away via the M5 to Junction 19, then the M4 east across the Severn. We cover iPhones, Samsung phones, iPads, laptops, MacBooks and a range of other devices. We also cover Portishead and the North Somerset area through our mobile workshop service — book online or contact us to check availability.
Whether you need a cracked screen fixed, a battery replaced, a laptop diagnosed or a MacBook serviced, we can help. We offer a free quote before work begins on most common repairs. For complex faults that need deeper investigation — such as liquid damage, no-power faults or intermittent issues — a diagnostic charge may apply. If you go ahead with the repair, that cost is usually absorbed into the final price.
Repairs We Carry Out
Screen Repair & Replacement
Cracked or unresponsive screens replaced on iPhones, Samsung phones, iPads, tablets and laptops. We’ll advise on part options and pricing before any work begins.
Battery Replacement
Short battery life or a device that won’t hold charge? We replace batteries on most phones, tablets and MacBooks. Most battery jobs are completed the same day.
Laptop Repair
Slow performance, won’t boot, broken keyboard or a faulty charging port — we diagnose and repair most laptop faults across all major brands.
MacBook Repair
Screen replacements, battery swaps, keyboard repairs and board-level diagnostics on MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models. Free quote on most common faults.
Water Damage
Liquid damage needs careful investigation before we can give an accurate assessment. Bring the device in as soon as possible — the sooner we look at it, the better the chances of recovery. A diagnostic charge may apply for water damage cases.
Data Recovery
Lost files, a device that won’t start, or a failed drive. We assess data recovery cases individually — contact us to discuss your situation before bringing the device in.
