How Mobile Buddy Swansea Handles Water-Damaged Devices
Introduction
Accidents happen—whether it’s a spilled drink, a sudden downpour, or a dropped phone in the sink. At Mobile Buddy Swansea, we understand the panic and frustration that comes with a water-damaged device. While modern smartphones boast water resistance, they’re not invincible. Immediate and proper action is crucial to prevent lasting damage.
Our Expert Approach to Water-Damaged Devices
At Mobile Buddy Swansea, we follow a meticulous process to assess and repair water-damaged phones and tablets:
Immediate Power Down: We power off the device to prevent short circuits and further internal damage.
Thorough Drying: Using lint-free cloths, we gently blot the device to remove visible moisture. We avoid methods like hairdryers or placing the device in rice, as these can cause additional harm.
Disassembly and Inspection: Our technicians carefully open the device to inspect internal components for corrosion or residue.
Ultrasonic Cleaning: For severe cases, we employ ultrasonic cleaning to remove microscopic debris and corrosion from the motherboard and other delicate parts.
Drying with Silica Gel: We place the device in a sealed container with silica gel packets, allowing it to dry thoroughly over 24–48 hours.
Reassembly and Testing: After ensuring all components are dry and clean, we reassemble the device and conduct comprehensive tests to verify functionality.
Conclusion
Water damage doesn’t always mean the end for your device. At Mobile Buddy Swansea, our experienced technicians employ industry-leading techniques to restore your phone or tablet to its optimal condition. If you’ve experienced water damage, don’t panic—bring your device to us, and we’ll handle the rest.
