Expert Advice & Tips
Common causes of this issue:
- Spills on the device while in use
- Rain exposure or steam near a workstation
- Immersion in liquids (cups, baths, sinks)
- Condensation in humid environments around electronics
Prevention tips:
- Use a sturdy case and dry hands before handling the iPad
- Keep liquids away from the device and charging ports
- Back up data regularly to cloud or external storage
- Store the iPad upright and away from sinks or windows with steam
When to repair vs replace: In many Huddersfield cases, repair is sensible if the device is repairable and worth preserving; replace if corrosion is extensive or the device no longer meets your needs.

What to look for in a quality repair service: Choose a local shop you can trust.
- Transparent pricing with written quotes
- Genuine UK-sourced parts and robust functional testing
- Clear warranty terms (preferably 12 months or more)
- Short or same-day turnaround, especially in Huddersfield

Red flags to avoid: Don’t settle for vague promises.

Maintenance guidance after repair: Keep the device dry, use a protective case, and back up data regularly.

What Our Customers Say
I spilled water on my iPad 9.7 (2018) and thought I’d lose all my notes. The guys at iRepair Guys fixed it the same day for £60, which was much cheaper than Apple. They diagnosed quickly, dried it properly, and tested every function. Two hours later the screen, speakers and charging all worked perfectly. No hassle and far quicker than Apple’s service.
We rely on iPads for client meetings, so downtime isn’t an option. They repaired a water-damaged iPad on-site at our office in Huddersfield and it was back to work the same day. Reliable, professional, and clear about costs—plus a business discount that makes sense for teams with multiple devices.
As a student, I needed an affordable fix after a spill. The iRepair Guys offered a transparent £60 quote, completed the repair in under 2 hours, and the iPad works like new. Cheaper than Apple by a long shot and the public transport nearby made drop-off easy from Huddersfield town centre.
Mail-in repair was a lifesaver when the iPad stopped charging after water exposure. I sent it from Marsh, and the team returned it fully tested within 48 hours. Great service, helpful updates, and a solid 12-month warranty that Apple couldn’t beat.
We had three iPads in the office with water damage. They arrived onsite in Huddersfield, fixed two devices the same day, and the third the next day. The mobile service saved us from losing billable hours and the price was clear from the start. Highly recommended for business IT needs.
We brought in two iPads after a spill at home in Almondbury. The team repaired both in a single visit, explained the process, and offered a loyalty discount for multiple devices. It’s reassuring knowing you’ve got a local Huddersfield team you can trust with quick turnaround.

Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
The iPad 9.7 (2018) water-damage repair focuses on humidity removal, corrosion inspection on the charging port, dock, and logic board, plus replacement of any compromised connectors. We use thermal and moisture-control methods to dry components while protecting the LCD and touch sensor. After replacement, we perform calibration tests and run a full device diagnostic to confirm all functions—charging, audio, camera, and touchscreen—are stable.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Water damage typically results from liquid ingress through the ports or screen gap. Humidity and condensation can accelerate corrosion on contacts and connectors, leading to charging failure or degraded display performance. Quick drying, corrosion mitigation, and careful testing are essential to restore full functionality without compromising other features.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
For the iPad 9.7 (2018), most water-damage cases are repairable if the internal components aren’t severely corroded. We assess on intake and share a clear plan with expected outcomes. If damage is extensive, we’ll provide an honest recommendation, including a realistic cost comparison between repair and replacement.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
If your device has more than one issue (e.g., water damage plus battery degradation or screen faults), we offer multi-repair discounts. Our technicians prioritise the problems in order of impact on usability and perform all necessary repairs in a single session whenever possible to minimise downtime.
