FAQs About the Mobile Tech Lab (MTL)
Here are some of the most common questions we get asked around Mobile Phone Repairs -
Q: Why should I use Mobile Tech Lab rather than a local mobile phone repair shop?
A: You might think that you can repair your phone for cheaper at a local shop, however, at MTL , we want to ensure everyone has the chance to experience an express high-quality repair. If you find your repair cheaper elsewhere, don't worry, drop in-store or chat with us online and we'll do our very best to match it. If you're still considering replacing your screen at a local shop, make sure you always ask if they offer a guarantee, so if they install a faulty screen you can get your money back. All MTL screen repairs come with guarantee, so you don't need to worry about further issues. In addition, we use the highest quality parts, so you don’t have to worry about ending up with a poor quality digitiser, an unresponsive touchscreen or missing pixels. At MTL we have the most popular device parts in stock across the UK, while at a local shop you might need to wait for parts to be delivered, meaning that you’re stuck with a cracked screen for longer.
Q: How can I repair my phone screen?
A: We recommend that you try the following:
Firstly, assess the damage. Is it scratched or cracked? If it’s just a scratch those are pretty easy to fix yourself.
In the event of a scratch, simply wipe some toothpaste over the mark, gently rubbing it into the screen in a circular motion and making sure you do not remove any surface coating. If this doesn't work, try the same thing with either baking soda or vegetable oil.
If the screen is cracked then you can try and replace it yourself with a DIY phone kit. Alternatively, bring it to us and we'll fix it for you, fast.
