Expert Advice & Tips

Common causes of this issue often include physical drops, water exposure and connector wear.
- Dropped device causing LCD/frame damage
- Liquid ingress from spills or sweat
- Dust or lint in charging port causing poor connection
- Faulty software updates or malware leading to instability
- Physical microfractures from pressure over time
- Heat damage from prolonged gaming or charging in hot cars

Prevention tips help you avoid common faults and extend device life.
- Use a rugged case and tempered glass to minimise impact damage
- Keep device away from water and remove from pockets when near liquids
- Regularly back up data and install trusted updates only
- Clean charging port gently with compressed air if needed, avoid liquids
- Use original chargers and cables to maintain charging health
- Let device cool down between heavy tasks and avoid heat pockets

When to repair vs replace: Make informed decisions based on cost, age, and long-term use.
- If the issue is a failing battery and the phone is relatively recent, repair is usually best
- If screen is cracked beyond sight or water damage is severe, replacement may be cheaper long-term
- If cost to repair approaches new device price, consider replacement

What to look for in a quality repair service: Choosing a service with Galaxy expertise saves time and stress.
- Certified technicians with Galaxy experience
- Genuine parts and thorough testing
- Clear quotes, no hidden fees and transparent warranty
- Positive customer feedback and visible results

Red flags to avoid: Be wary of pressure tactics and vague promises.
- Unclear pricing or vague diagnosis
- Pressure to replace rather than repair
- No warranty or aftercare offered

Maintenance guidance after repair: Keep your device performing optimally with these simple steps.
- Test the device thoroughly before leaving the shop
- Use a protective case and keep software up to date
- Monitor battery health and avoid charging overnight if swollen

What Our Customers Say

Marsh

I took my Galaxy A42 5G to iRepair Guys in Marsh for a diagnosis after the screen flickered. The team diagnosed the issue within 40 minutes, explained it clearly, and gave a fair quote. The repair was completed the same day with high-quality parts, and the phone felt noticeably faster. Much better value than the Apple Store for a quick fix.

We run a small business in Town Centre and needed phones repaired fast for an important meeting. iRepair Guys diagnosed on-site and fixed our Galaxy devices within hours.

Almondbury

As a student in Almondbury, I compared prices between Apple and iRepair Guys. The diagnostic was quick, the price sensible, and the student discount helped a lot. Quality felt as good as new, with no hidden costs. Apple Store couldn’t match the speed or value.

From Lindley, I used the mail-in service for a Galaxy A42 5G diagnosis. The process was straightforward: pack it, send it, and receive updates. Turnaround was excellent, and my phone was returned in great condition after a precise diagnosis. Highly recommended for those who can’t visit in person.

Frequently Asked Questions

Pricing & Value

Q:

How much does this repair cost?

A:

At iRepair Guys, the diagnostic service for Galaxy devices is free. Once we identify the issue, we provide a clear, fixed quote for the repair based on parts and labour. There are no hidden fees and you’ll know the total cost before any work begins. Our focus is fast, honest diagnostics, with transparent pricing that you won’t find at the Apple Store.

Q:

Why cheaper than Apple?

A:

We operate with lower overhead and a highly local model, which lets us offer fast turnaround, high-quality parts, and a straightforward quote without the premium Apple Store pricing. We specialise in Samsung devices in Huddersfield and surrounding areas, so parts are readily available and repairs are efficient. That combination delivers real savings while keeping standards high, and our 12-month warranty backs every repair.

Q:

Any hidden costs?

A:

There are no hidden costs. Diagnostic fees are waived, and after we identify the issue, we present a clear estimate for parts and labour before any work proceeds. You’ll always know what you’re paying for and why, with VAT included where applicable. We believe in transparent pricing as standard, so you can compare confidently with other options, including the Apple Store.

Q:

Payment plans or discounts?

A:

We offer competitive discounts for students and businesses, plus loyalty incentives for repeat customers. Payment methods include card and online transfer, with receipts provided. If you’re a student or part of a local business in Marsh, Almondbury, or surrounding areas, you’ll qualify for additional savings. Our goal is affordable, dependable repairs with clear value and no surprises.

Quality & Process

Q:

Parts quality?

A:

We source high-quality parts for Samsung Galaxy devices, including OEM-grade components where possible. Every part is tested before installation and subjected to post-repair quality checks to ensure compatibility and performance. Our aim is to restore device functionality to factory standards while maintaining long-term reliability, so features like biometrics and touch response stay consistent with the device’s original specs.

Q:

How long does repair take?

A:

Diagnosis typically takes 20-40 minutes. Most common repairs can be completed on the same day, often within a few hours, allowing you to pick up the device with minimal downtime. If a parts-led repair needs ordering, we’ll provide a precise ETA and keep you updated. We prioritise speed without sacrificing quality, which is why our same-day service is a standout feature compared with the Apple Store.

Q:

Will features work after? (Face ID, etc.)

A:

Absolutely. We treat the device holistically, preserving sensors and security features. After repairs, we test biometric authentication, fingerprint sensors, camera functions, and connectivity to ensure you don’t lose any functionality. If something isn’t right, we re-check and retest until it’s fully functional, so you can use your Galaxy exactly as before.

Q:

Success rate?

A:

Our repairs are consistently reliable, with a high success rate across Galaxy diagnostics and fix workflows. We monitor every job with quality control checks and customer feedback. In practice, you can expect prompt diagnostics, precise part fitting, and thorough testing, resulting in results that align with our 98% customer satisfaction benchmark and the majority of fixes delivered on the first visit.

Service Options

Q:

Walk-in, mobile, or mail-in?

A:

We offer three flexible options. Walk-in to our Marsh store for diagnostics and on-site repair. If you can’t visit, you can book a mobile service to your home or workplace in Huddersfield and surrounding areas. For those afar or with limited time, our mail-in service provides a convenient option—you’ll receive updates during the diagnostic process and a quick return once repaired. All options include our standard, high-quality parts and warranty.

Q:

How does mobile repair work?

A:

Our mobile repair team visits your location, carries the necessary tools and parts, and performs diagnostics and repairs on-site. We cover Marsh, Town Centre, Almondbury, Lindley, Moldgreen, and surrounding areas, with the same high standards you expect in-store. Appointments are scheduled to minimise disruption to your day, and we test thoroughly before handing devices back.

Q:

Need appointment?

A:

Walk-ins are welcome, but booking an appointment helps us reserve a time slot and prepare the right parts. If you’re in a hurry, our same-day service is often available, especially for common Samsung issues. Call ahead to confirm availability, or book online for a guaranteed slot at our Marsh store or mobile service in your area.

Q:

Come to business/home?

A:

Yes. We regularly perform mobile repairs for businesses in Huddersfield and surrounding areas, visiting offices in places like Dalton, Birkby, and Lockwood. This reduces downtime and keeps your team productive. We can also arrange Mail-in or in-store diagnostics if preferred. Our mobile option is designed to be unobtrusive and efficient, with minimal disruption to your operations.

Warranty

Q:

What warranty?

A:

All repaired components carry a 12-month warranty. This coverage includes faults arising from the repair work itself and the parts installed, provided the device has not been subjected to unauthorised modifications or accidental damage. Our warranty ensures confidence in our work, and you’ll be guided through the claim process if you ever need to use it.

Q:

If something goes wrong?

A:

If a repaired component fails within the warranty period, bring the device back for a free inspection and any necessary rework. We’ll diagnose the issue and either fix it again or replace the defective part at no extra cost, subject to warranty terms. Our aim is to make it right quickly, so you can resume normal use with minimal hassle.

Q:

Affect manufacturer warranty?

A:

No. Repair work performed by iRepair Guys uses approved procedures and compatible parts that comply with manufacturer guidelines. Our aim is to preserve your manufacturer warranty where possible, and we only replace components that are necessary and tested to meet Samsung specifications, so your device remains within its intended protection plan.

Technical

Q:

Device-specific technical question

A:

For Galaxy A42 5G, common issues include screen faults, charging problems, software glitches, and camera malfunctions. Our diagnosis identifies whether the problem is hardware-related (screen, battery, port) or software-related (firmware, apps). We then apply targeted fixes with careful handling of sensitive components, ensuring data integrity and full functionality after repair, including any adjustments needed to maintain performance post-repair.

Q:

What causes this issue?

A:

Issues typically arise from everyday use—drops, pressure on screens, cable wear, battery wear, and software conflicts from updates or apps. Environmental factors like heat or moisture can also contribute. Our diagnostic process helps distinguish between hardware faults and software glitches, so you receive the most effective repair and avoid unnecessary replacements.

Q:

Repair or replace device?

A:

We assess each case on its merits. If the cost and reliability of repair exceed the device’s expected lifespan or repair becomes impractical, we’ll advise replacement. However, many Galaxy A42 5G issues are cost-efficient to fix with high-quality parts and proper testing, and we often achieve a like-new experience without the price of a brand-new device.

Q:

Fix multiple issues?

A:

If your device has multiple issues, we can combine repairs for efficiency and savings. We offer multi-repair discounts where applicable and ensure that each component is tested thoroughly post-repair. Our goal is to restore full functionality across cameras, charging, display, and software while keeping downtime to a minimum.
