Our Samsung-certified technicians bring 10-15 years of hands-on repair experience across mobile devices. They’ve completed more than 8,000 Galaxy repairs in the North, including screen, battery, charging port and software faults.

Liam Carter from Huddersfield

I dropped my Galaxy A8 Plus and thought the screen was finished. The team at iRepair Guys Marsh on Westbourne Rd diagnosed it in minutes and had a replacement done the same day. Prices were fair, there were no hidden fees, and the display feels brand new. If you’re in Marsh or Town Centre, this is my go-to for Samsung fixes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Pricing & Value

Q:

How much does this repair cost?

A:

The Samsung Galaxy A8 Plus diagnosis is free as part of our standard service. After we identify the fault, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote with a breakdown of parts and labour. Pricing varies by fault and parts required, and there are no hidden fees. You’ll know the total before you approve, and we always aim to keep costs lower than comparable Apple Store visits by removing unnecessary overhead and offering local, fast service.

Q:

Why cheaper than Apple?

A:

Apple Stores carry higher overheads and premium retail pricing. We operate locally with streamlined processes, a specialist Samsung focus, and no inflated service charges. By keeping stock and labour efficient, we deliver rapid diagnostics and repair for Galaxy A8 Plus at a cost that’s typically well below Apple’s quoted prices. Plus, you’re supporting a Huddersfield-based business with expert Samsung technicians rather than an overseas appointment.

Q:

Any hidden costs?

A:

No. We publish a transparent approach: the initial diagnosis is free, and the final quote includes parts and labour with a clear breakdown. If there are extra issues discovered during the repair, we’ll discuss them up front and obtain your approval before proceeding. VAT is included where applicable, and there are no surprise charges at collection.

Q:

Payment plans or discounts?

A:

We offer value-added options such as student discounts and business rates. Loyalty discounts apply across repeat visits or multi-device repairs. All discounted options are explained in your quote, so you can choose the best option for your situation. Our aim is to keep you mobile and money where it matters most, especially if you’re comparing to Apple Store costs.

Quality & Process

Q:

Parts quality?

A:

We source OEM-grade and high-quality replacement parts for the Galaxy A8 Plus. Each part undergoes strict QA testing before installation, and we select suppliers with proven reliability. Our goal is to restore full functionality—touch response, camera output, and fingerprint recognition—so your device works as well as new after the repair.

Q:

How long does repair take?

A:

Diagnosis usually takes around 15–30 minutes, with most common repairs completed on the same day. In many cases, a screen or battery replacement can be done within 2 hours, with time saved by our dedicated Samsung specialists. We aim for a same-day turnaround in 95% of cases, subject to stock availability and the fault found.

Q:

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

A:

For Galaxy devices like the A8 Plus, we ensure that fingerprint sensors, facial recognition, cameras, and other features operate correctly after repair. Our technicians test sensors, cameras, charging, and connectivity, and we only hand back a device once all features pass our internal checks. If a feature needs recalibration, we perform it during the repair.

Q:

Success rate?

A:

We consistently maintain a high success rate. Our average customer rating is 4.9/5, with a 98% satisfaction rate across more than 5,000 repairs. We use robust quality control procedures, including post-repair testing and firmware checks, to ensure you leave confident in the fix.

Service Options

Q:

Walk-in, mobile, or mail-in?

A:

You can walk in to our Huddersfield stores for a diagnosis and repair, choose mobile service for on-site repairs at your location, or use our mail-in option if you’re outside the area. Walk-ins are welcome during shop hours (Mon–Sat 9am–6pm). Mobile service brings our Samsung specialists to your door for convenient on-site repair. Mail-in offers a secure, trackable way to get your device fixed without visiting a store.

Q:

How does mobile repair work?

A:

Our mobile repair team travels to your location in Huddersfield, including Marsh, Town Centre, and surrounding areas. After confirming the fault, we perform diagnosis on-site and complete the repair within the agreed timeframe. We bring stock of common parts, provide a transparent quote, and test the device before departure to ensure it’s ready for use.

Q:

Need appointment?

A:

Appointments aren’t always required for walk-ins, but popular times fill quickly. If you prefer a specific time, you can book a slot for our Marsh store or arrange mobile service at a convenient location such as Brighouse, Almondbury, or Lindley. We’ll confirm the ETA and keep you updated by email or phone.

Q:

Come to business/home?

A:

Yes. Our mobile service is ideal for businesses and homes in Huddersfield, including Marsh, Town Centre, and nearby areas like Moldgreen or Dalton. We’ll work around your schedule and fix multiple devices in one visit where possible. This reduces downtime and keeps your team productive with minimal disruption.

Location & Hours

Q:

Where in Huddersfield?

A:

We’re near local landmarks in Marsh and a short walk from the Huddersfield train station. Free street parking is nearby, and public car parks are within five minutes’ walk. For directions, head to Westbourne Road and look for the Marsh shop front.

Q:

A:

We cover Marsh, Town Centre, Brighouse, Almondbury, Lindley, Moldgreen, Lockwood, Birkby, Dalton, and surrounding areas. Our mobile service extends across these zones, making it easy to get a Galaxy A8 Plus diagnosed and repaired without long trips to a store. If you’re unsure, contact us and we’ll confirm availability for your exact location.

If you’re contacting us from the Huddersfield area outside these hours, we can arrange after-hours support where possible. Phone and email are monitored during business hours for quotes and appointment confirmation.

Warranty

Q:

What warranty?

A:

We offer a 12-month warranty on both parts and labour for Galaxy A8 Plus repairs. This covers faults arising from the repair itself and ensures you won’t face a repeat issue shortly after the fix. Our warranty is designed to provide longer protection than Apple’s standard warranty window, giving you peace of mind for the long term.

Q:

If something goes wrong?

A:

If an issue recurs within the warranty period, bring the device back to us or arrange a mobile service visit. We’ll diagnose at no charge and rectify the fault promptly. Our goal is to make things right quickly, with minimal downtime and no hassle for you.

Q:

Affect manufacturer warranty?

A:

No. Our warranty runs alongside and does not affect the manufacturer’s warranty. If your Galaxy A8 Plus is still under its original maker’s warranty, you can still use our service without invalidating it. We adhere to UK consumer rights and warranty standards, and we will guide you through any warranty implications.

Technical

Q:

Device-specific technical question

A:

For the Galaxy A8 Plus (2018), common issues include screen digitiser faults, battery degradation, and charging port wear. We perform a focused diagnostic to identify the exact fault, then replace or repair the affected component while preserving other functions. Our technicians calibrate sensors and test the device thoroughly, including display, touch, cameras, and connectivity.

Q:

What causes this issue?

A:

Faults often arise from accidental drops, moisture exposure, or wear from daily use. Screen impacts and battery aging can cause unresponsive screens, slower performance, or charging problems. By analysing the device, we distinguish between a simple sensor fault and a broader board issue, ensuring we address the root cause rather than just the symptom.

Q:

Repair or replace device?

A:

Most Galaxy A8 Plus faults can be repaired cost-effectively. We assess the fault, provide a transparent quote, and weigh it against the cost of a replacement. If the device is severely damaged or the repair would be nearly as expensive as a new phone, we’ll explain the options and help you decide the best long-term solution.

Q:

Fix multiple issues?

A:

Yes. If multiple faults are found, we offer multi-repair discounts and will provide a combined quote. This approach saves time and reduces downtime for your device, and our technicians verify that each repaired component works together seamlessly after the fix.
