A big thank you to Mitchell for helping out a couple of non-tech oldies with their Apple iPad. He was very patient explaining and soon put us back on track. Highly recommended you could not do better. Ann...

Prompt response to my email regarding my iPad that had stopped working completely.Mike unfortunately found the device was not able to be repaired even though only four years old. Cost to establish this was minimal and very fair.
Read full reviewWhen a battery assessment helps
An iPad that runs for less time than it used to may have an ageing battery, but apps, settings, charging accessories and other faults can also affect runtime. Tell us how long it lasts, how you use it and whether the problem developed gradually or started suddenly.

iPad
Standard iPads cover several generations. The generation matters more than the colour or storage size when identifying a repair. Screen, connector and button arrangements differ across the range.
iPad Air
The Air family spans earlier designs and newer models with different screen sizes. Include the generation and size in your enquiry so the correct display, battery and charging options can be checked.
iPad Mini
Small size does not mean interchangeable parts. Different Mini generations use different screens, connectors and button arrangements. Identify the generation before selecting a repair.
iPad Pro
Pro models need both the screen size and generation or chip name to identify them reliably. Two iPads with the same screen size can require different repair parts and assessment.

Repair information
How your repair enquiry works
- Identify the iPad and describe the symptoms, including damage or previous repairs.
- Choose workshop, home visit, collection or postal when requesting a quote. Availability and arrangements are confirmed before proceeding.
- Review the assessment, proposed repair and quote before authorising work.
Battery, charger or charging port?
Describe whether the iPad charges normally, only charges in a particular position, switches off at a reported charge level or fails to start. This helps distinguish a battery enquiry from a connector or power fault. The repair recommendation follows assessment rather than assuming every charging problem needs a battery.
Preparing for the repair
Identify the exact generation and back up accessible data before the visit. Mention any screen damage or previous opening of the device, as this can affect the assessment. We confirm the proposed repair, parts availability and turnaround before work begins. Tell us if the enclosure or display has started lifting so we can advise how to bring the device in.
Information that makes a battery quote more useful
Describe a typical session: the approximate starting charge, what you were doing and when the iPad needed charging again. Note whether the percentage drops suddenly or the device switches off while charge is still shown. Also tell us whether the problem occurs while connected to power. These observations are more useful than a runtime figure without context and help explain whether the enquiry should include charging or power diagnosis.
Your repair questions
Can you quote without the model?
The model is needed for a useful battery quote. Settings, the number on the casing or a photograph of the device can help us identify it.
Does battery replacement erase my iPad?
A battery repair is not intended to erase data, but a backup is advisable before any repair. If the iPad cannot start, tell us before the assessment; we cannot promise access to its data.
How much does iPad battery replacement cost?
The quote depends on the model and what the assessment finds. Include any cracked screen or previous repair when requesting a price. We confirm parts availability, the proposed work and turnaround before you decide.
Should I request a battery or charging-port repair?
If the main issue is short runtime after charging, start with a battery enquiry. If the connection is unreliable or charging stops when the cable moves, describe that as well. You do not need to diagnose the faulty part before contacting us.
