A school administrator walked in last month with a cardboard box. Inside: 23 cracked iPad screens. "The Year 6s," she sighed. "They've had them three months." Two weeks later, every iPad was back in classroom service.
iPad repairs are different from phone repairs — larger screens, more adhesive, longer repair times. But for schools, families, and businesses, repair often makes far more sense than replacement. We've fixed 340 iPads in the past year alone, 89 of them from schools and businesses.
Did You Know?
iPad repair reality: Takes longer than iPhone (1-2 hours vs 30 minutes), costs more for the parts, but extends the life of devices that otherwise work perfectly. School iPad? Usually worth fixing. 8-year-old iPad? Let's talk honestly first.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
iPads have larger screens with more adhesive, and the components are more tightly integrated. A typical iPad screen repair takes 1-2 hours, compared to 30 minutes for an iPhone. We take the time needed to do it properly rather than rushing and risking damage.
Depends on the model. iPad Air 2 and newer? Usually yes. Older iPads with thick bezels? The economics often don't work - the screen costs almost as much as a refurbished replacement. We'll always give you honest advice.
Yes. We work with several schools in the Birmingham area. If you have 5+ iPads needing repair, we offer bulk pricing and can arrange collection. One school in Solihull sent us 47 iPads last term.
Yes. We use digitiser assemblies that fully support Apple Pencil functionality, including pressure sensitivity and palm rejection. If your Pencil worked before, it will work after.
iPad Pro repairs are the most expensive because the parts cost more. The 12.9" Pro screens can cost £400+. Sometimes the repair approaches 50% of replacement value. We'll always be upfront about whether repair makes financial sense.
Usually yes. It's often the charging port itself, which we can replace. Sometimes it's debris in the port (surprisingly common with iPads used by children). Occasionally it's a battery issue. We diagnose for free.
