Q: Can I fix a broken phone screen myself?

• <div><p>It is possible to fix a broken phone screen yourself using a phone repair kit, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. Replacing your screen isn&rsquo;t as simple as taking the old one off and putting the new one on, and DIYers can mess up many steps. Those include opening the phone without damaging internal components, removing internal pieces without breaking them, and calibrating the screen after replacement. Any mistakes could lead to problems with functionality and might lead to your phone failing to work. It&rsquo;s best to hire a phone repair technician who can fix your phone screen efficiently.</p></div>

Q: How long does a phone screen repair take?

• <div><p>Most smartphone repair specialists can replace your phone screen in <b>30 to 45 minutes</b>, depending on the model. The repair could take longer if components under the screen are also damaged and need to be replaced. If you attempt to do the work yourself using a phone screen repair kit, set aside one to two hours to learn the correct steps and implement them carefully.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth it to repair a cellphone?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s usually more cost-effective to repair a cellphone than replace it entirely. Phone repair services can be costly, depending on the extent and type of damage, but you&rsquo;ll almost always spend less on repair than on replacement. Plus, replacing the phone might not help if the problem lies with your service provider, such as issues like dropped calls or poor network connection. However, it&rsquo;s worth repairing your phone for mid-level issues like a cracked screen, damaged headphone jack, or smashed charger port.</p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to repair a phone or get a new one?

• <div><p>In most cases, it is more affordable to repair a cellphone than it is to buy a new one. The average cost to repair a phone is around <b>$180</b>, while the average smartphone costs between <b>$720</b> <b>and</b> <b>$1,000 </b>or more. Repair costs are almost never more than 50% of the total phone cost, with the high end of repairs costing around <b>$350</b>. If you hire a professional phone repair service near you, you&rsquo;ll usually save significant funds repairing instead of replacing your cellphone.</p></div>

He did an excellent job on a tricky ceiling repair (100 year old plaster/lathe under a layer of drywall). He came back several times -- at no extra charge, to perfect the mudding and sanding of the repair. The lighting fixture went up just fine. He even demonstrated for me how to add more...
