Phone Water Damage Repair in Houston, TX: Free Inspection, No Fix No Fee

Phone Fell in Water? What to Do Right Now in Houston

What you do in the first hour matters more than anything else. Follow these steps:

• Power it off right away. Current running through a wet board is what turns moisture into corrosion and short circuits.
• Do not charge it. Do not plug it into a computer to test it either.
• Remove the case and pull the SIM tray. This gives trapped water a way out.
• Dry the outside gently. Use a soft lint free cloth, and do not shake the phone hard, which pushes water deeper.
• Do not press buttons. Every test power cycle sends current through a wet board.
• No rice, no heat. Skip the hair dryer, the oven, and the dashboard in the sun.
• Bring it in the same day. Corrosion starts within hours, especially with salt or pool water.

You can call ahead at (713) 987-1155, but you do not need an appointment.

Water Damaged iPhone Repair in Houston: Corrosion Cleaning

When a wet iPhone or Android phone reaches our bench, the first step is always the same: we open it and disconnect the battery. A connected battery keeps feeding current into the board, and that current speeds up corrosion. With power removed, we inspect the board under magnification for green or white residue, discolored connectors, and corrosion around chips and shields.

Next comes corrosion cleaning. We clean the affected areas and connectors to remove mineral deposits and the residue water leaves behind. Then we test component by component: display, touch, cameras, speakers, microphones, charging, Face ID or fingerprint, and cellular signal. That testing shows which parts survived and which did not. A battery exposed to liquid often needs an iPhone battery replacement, and a liquid detected alert or moisture in the connector usually points to iPhone charging port repair. Once the case has been opened, your phone is no longer reliably water resistant, even when the repair works perfectly, so treat it as a phone that needs to stay dry.

Can Water Damaged Phone Data Be Recovered in Houston?

Sometimes yes, sometimes only partly, and sometimes no. We will not promise data recovery, because nobody can honestly promise it before the board has been inspected. What we can promise is this: if your photos, contacts, or messages matter more than the phone itself, we treat them as the priority. Tell us at drop off, and we focus the work on getting the phone to power on long enough to save what is on it.

If your wet phone still turns on, back it up first, before anything else. Use iCloud, Google, or a computer, and do it today, because a phone that works now may not work next week. If the board is too far gone, we tell you so plainly instead of charging for attempts that will not succeed. When the phone itself cannot be saved, we can help you get back in service with one of our unlocked phones.

Phone Water Damage Repair Near Me: Open Sundays 9 AM to 8 PM in South Houston

Our shop sits at 9705 Telephone Rd in the 77075 ZIP code, on the south side of Houston.

If you are driving back from Galveston with a phone that took a wave, Telephone Road is right on the way home.

We are open Monday to Sunday, 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM, with the same full hours on Sunday.
