- Lack of safety testing or data protection.

What Our Customers Say
I needed a quick battery fix for my Samsung Galaxy A8 Star. I walked into iRepair Guys Marsh on Westbourne Rd near Marsh and they replaced the battery in under 40 minutes. The price was exactly £30 with no surprises. The phone feels like new again and they tested every function, from the fingerprint sensor to the camera. Excellent service in Marsh and Lindley.
We rely on a small fleet of Galaxy A8 Stars. When one battery died, iRepair Guys arrived the same day, did the mobile repair at our Town Centre office, and refurbished the device fast. Their reliability and quick turnaround save us time and money, and the business discount helped us stay within budget for our Brighouse team.
As a student in Almondbury, I needed an affordable fix. The price at iRepair Guys for a Galaxy A8 Star battery was £30, cheaper than the Apple store by a big margin. They were friendly, explained the process, and I collected the phone the same day. Great value, and I’m keeping their loyalty discount in mind for my next repair.
I mailed my Galaxy A8 Star from Lindley for a battery replacement and was impressed with the turnaround. They confirmed the repair, shipped the device back quickly, and it held charge well. The process was painless, and the packaging was neat. A solid option if you’re in Moldgreen or surrounding areas.
We rely on mobile devices for work, and iRepair Guys delivered same-day service to our office in Brighouse. The technician arrived on time, replaced the battery, and left the device testing perfectly. It’s refreshing to have a local service that understands professional needs and offers reliable on-site support.
We brought in multiple Galaxy A8 Stars for family members across Almondbury and Dalton. The team handled all repairs quickly, offered a clear loyalty discount, and kept us updated through the process. It’s comforting to know a local shop can handle several devices at once with same-day service.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing & Value
Q:
How much does this repair cost?
For a Samsung Galaxy A8 Star battery replacement, the price is £30. The service includes battery installation, full device testing, and a 12-month warranty. Because we’re a UK-based independent repairer, we skip the premium Apple-store pricing and pass the savings directly to you. The price is transparent and fixed, with no hidden add-ons. If you have multiple devices, we can apply loyalty discounts for households in Marsh, Town Centre, Almondbury, and surrounding areas.
Q:
Why cheaper than Apple?
Apple Store pricing includes high overheads, official service policies, and long-running queues. iRepair Guys operates as a local, specialist Samsung repairer with streamlined processes, high-quality parts, and expert technicians. We offer the same-day service wherever possible and fix right the first time, backed by warranties that beat Apple’s 90-day standard. In practice, this means faster turnaround, more convenience for residents of Marsh, Lindley, and Moldgreen, and better value for money.
Q:
Any hidden costs?
No. Our pricing is transparent. The £30 covers the battery, installation, testing, and 12-month warranty. There are no diagnostic fees or surprise surcharges. If there are additional faults discovered, we’ll quote clearly before proceeding, and you’ll always approve any extra work. We’re upfront for residents across Dalton, Birkby, and surrounding areas to avoid unexpected bills.
Q:
Payment plans or discounts?
We offer straightforward pricing with occasional loyalty discounts for families and local businesses. Student and business discounts are available, and you can pay by card or cash. If you’re in the Marsh, Almondbury, or Town Centre zones, ask about current promotions when you visit our Marsh store or book a mobile visit to your Huddersfield workplace.
Quality & Process
Q:
Parts quality?
We use OEM-grade parts where possible and reliable equivalents when needed. For Samsung Galaxy devices like the A8 Star, we source components from approved suppliers to maintain performance, battery life, and safety. All parts undergo quality checks, including initial testing, battery discharge tests, and post-repair diagnostics to ensure sensors and charging work flawlessly after the fix.
Q:
How long does repair take?
Most Galaxy A8 Star battery replacements are completed within 30-60 minutes at our Marsh workshop or during a mobile visit. On busy days, we prioritise same-day service for urgent requests in Marsh, Town Centre, and Lindley, with a clear ETA given before starting. If more extensive diagnostics are needed, we’ll advise upfront and keep you informed throughout the process.
Q:
Will features work after? (Face ID, etc.)
Battery replacement does not affect core features like the fingerprint sensor or camera quality. We thoroughly test all functions after the fix, including charging, power-on performance, speaker, microphone, and any biometric sensors. If any issue arises, we re-check and correct it quickly—our goal is to restore full functionality for devices used in Almondbury, Moldgreen, and surrounding areas.
Q:
Success rate?
We’re proud of a high success rate, validated by our 4.9 average rating across 5000+ repairs. Each repair undergoes a multi-point quality check, including battery health verification and software testing. Our in-house QA ensures consistent performance for Galaxy A8 Star devices, with a warranty to cover you if anything reoccurs within 12 months.
Service Options
Q:
Walk-in, mobile, or mail-in?
We offer three flexible options: Walk-in at iRepair Guys Marsh (142 Westbourne Rd, Huddersfield) for convenience in Marsh, Town Centre, and nearby areas; mobile repair at your home or office within Huddersfield and surrounding zones; and mail-in service for longer-distance customers. Walk-ins are ideal for quick fixes, mobile repairs suit busy professionals, and mail-in is perfect for remote or busy students. All come with our 12-month warranty.
Q:
How does mobile repair work?
Our mobile repair team travels to your location in Huddersfield, including Marsh, Lindley, and Almondbury. You’ll receive a server ETA, and on arrival we perform the same battery replacement workflow as in-store: diagnosis, battery swap, functional tests, and a final check. All work includes a short on-site demonstration to confirm charging, power-on, and device usability before we leave.
Q:
Need appointment?
Walk-ins are welcome, but we recommend booking for guaranteed same-day service, especially in busy periods. Booking is easy via phone or email. If you’re in Brighouse, Dalton, or Birkby and need a precise time window, booking helps us reserve the fastest slot and ensures your Galaxy A8 Star is prioritised by our technicians.
Q:
Come to business/home?
Yes. We regularly perform on-site mobile repairs for businesses and individuals in Huddersfield. Whether you’re in a small office in Town Centre or a home in Moldgreen, our technicians carry stock of common batteries and perform the repair at your location. This minimizes downtime for teams in Lindley and surrounding areas and keeps your workflow uninterrupted.

Warranty
Q:
What warranty?
All Samsung Galaxy A8 Star battery replacements come with a 12-month warranty. This covers defects in materials or workmanship and ensures you’re protected if the battery Congestion or device issues arise during normal use. If a fault occurs due to our repair, we’ll fix it at no additional cost within the warranty period, subject to terms and conditions.
Q:
If something goes wrong?
If an issue appears within the warranty period, contact us and we’ll arrange a no-cost assessment and rework if required. We’ll prioritise the device in Marsh or Town Centre, and we’ll test the battery, charging, and overall device performance to ensure it meets our quality standards before returning it to you.
Q:
Affect manufacturer warranty?
Getting your battery replaced by iRepair Guys does not automatically void your manufacturer warranty. In the UK, third-party repairs are allowed as long as the work is performed by a qualified technician and used parts adhere to standards. You should retain your receipt and the work notes, in case your device requires further service under the manufacturer warranty.
Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
Samsung Galaxy A8 Star battery replacements involve careful disassembly, sensor checks, and battery calibration. Our technicians use anti-static procedures, discharge protection, and software testing to ensure the device’s protection, display, and sensors operate correctly after the swap. We also verify charging performance and any app-specific battery optimisations to prevent rapid drain post-repair.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Over time, smartphone batteries lose capacity due to chemical age, heat exposure, and frequent charging cycles. Temperature fluctuations in homes near Marsh and Town Centre can accelerate wear. Regular use, background processes, and software updates can also contribute to faster drain. Our battery replacements restore capacity and reduce heat during charging, improving overall battery health.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
A battery replacement is typically the most cost-effective option for aging devices like the Galaxy A8 Star. If the motherboard, charging port, or display shows substantial wear, we’ll advise whether a replacement makes more sense. For many users in Almondbury, Lindley, and Moldgreen, a battery swap offers a fresh, functional device without the higher cost of a new phone.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
If you have more than one issue (e.g., battery drain plus camera fault), we can quote a combined repair. We often offer multi-repair discounts for households or small teams in Marsh, Dalton, and Lockwood. Our technicians test all affected components and confirm you’re getting the best possible device performance after the repair.
