iPad screen repair specialists

iPad screen repairs in Edinburgh & across Scotland.

MrFix is an independent, Scottish-based Apple repair specialist, providing iPad screen repairs for customers in Edinburgh and across Scotland. Visit us at our Edinburgh City Centre or Corstorphine store, send your iPad to us from anywhere in Scotland or the wider UK, or use our iPad Collection & Return service across Edinburgh.

The digitiser is the touch-sensitive glass layer on the front of your iPad. On many models it is a separate part from the display underneath, so if only the glass is cracked or the touch has stopped working, you may not need a full screen replacement. We replace digitisers across the iPad range, including standard iPad, iPad mini, iPad Air and supported iPad Pro models. From cracked or shattered glass to unresponsive touch, ghost touch and dead zones, choose your exact iPad model to see the available options and repair price.

Your price is confirmed before any work begins. Most walk-in iPad screen repairs are completed in around 60 minutes and come with a 12-month warranty.

You can walk into either MrFix Edinburgh store without an appointment. For extra convenience, our iPad Collection & Return service costs £20 extra, with a MrFix driver collecting your device and returning it after repair within our Edinburgh service area, subject to address availability. If you’re outside Edinburgh, you can use our UK-wide postal repair service.

MrFix has been Scottish-based since 2017. However you choose to get your iPad to us, we keep the process clear: choose your model, see your digitiser options and price, and know what you’re paying before your repair begins.

Knowledge

Know your iPad before choosing a digitiser repair

Some iPads look almost identical — and even share the same screen size — while using completely different digitisers.

Take the iPad 5th and 6th generation. Both have a 9.7-inch screen and look very similar, but they don’t use the same replacement digitiser. It’s a similar story with the iPad 9th generation and iPad Air 3: both are around 10 inches, but the iPad 9th generation has a separate digitiser, while the iPad Air 3 has glass laminated to the display.

That difference matters because the exact model determines which digitiser fits your iPad, whether the glass can be replaced on its own and how much the repair costs. Choosing by appearance or screen size alone can easily lead to the wrong part.

You can check yours by going to Settings → General → About → Model Name, or by checking the model number (starting with “A”) printed on the back of the iPad. If the glass is too damaged to use, bring the iPad to MrFix and we’ll identify the model for you before confirming your digitiser option and exact repair price.

Knowledge

Before you book an iPad repair

A few simple checks are worth trying before bringing your iPad to MrFix. Sometimes what looks like a hardware fault has a straightforward cause, and we’d rather help you avoid paying for a repair you don’t actually need.

If your iPad won’t charge:

Try another charging cable and mains adapter first. Dust and pocket debris can also collect inside the charging port and prevent the cable from connecting properly. Avoid inserting metal objects or anything that could damage the port. If changing the cable doesn’t help, MrFix can check whether the problem is the port, battery or another charging component.

If your iPad is slow, freezing or crashing:

Restart the iPad before assuming something has failed. It’s also worth checking Settings → General → iPad Storage. Very low available storage can cause poor performance, freezing and other behaviour that can feel like a hardware problem. Freeing some space may be all that’s needed.

If you think your iPad battery is failing:

Go to Settings → Battery and check the battery usage and, on supported models, the Battery Health information shown by iPadOS. How the iPad behaves matters too. Unexpected shutdowns, rapid battery drain or noticeably reduced everyday battery life can all indicate that the battery needs attention.

If your iPad touchscreen stops responding or behaves strangely:

Don’t automatically assume you need a new digitiser. Restart the iPad, remove any screen protector or case that could be pressing on the glass, and check whether the problem continues. If you have cracked glass, persistent ghost touch or areas of the touchscreen that don’t respond, MrFix can inspect the iPad and confirm whether the digitiser or the display is actually at fault.

If your iPad has been exposed to water or another liquid:

Avoid charging it and, where possible, switch the device off. Don’t put the iPad in rice or try to dry the charging port with heat. Liquid can continue affecting internal components even when the iPad initially appears to work normally, so having it assessed promptly gives you the best chance of identifying the damage before it becomes worse.

Still not sure? Bring the iPad to MrFix. We’ll check what’s actually wrong and explain the repair and price before any work begins.

Knowledge

Parts and quality options

At MrFix, we don’t believe every customer needs the same replacement digitiser. Your choice can depend on the iPad model, how long you plan to keep it, how you use it and your budget. That’s why we offer different digitiser options and explain what is being fitted, what is included and how much it costs before the repair begins.

Premium digitiser — our recommended option.

For supported iPads, our Premium digitiser is the option we’re proud to recommend. These parts are selected for clear, durable glass, accurate touch response and reliable everyday performance. Our aim is to give customers who choose an aftermarket part a high-quality option rather than simply fitting the cheapest digitiser available.

On some iPad models, the digitiser and display are laminated together, which means the glass can’t be replaced on its own and a full screen assembly is needed. Where that applies, our technicians explain it before the repair so there are no unexpected surprises.

Value Edition — a lower-cost option when budget comes first.

We understand that the Premium digitiser isn’t the right choice for everyone. You may need your iPad working urgently, be using it temporarily, preparing to replace it soon or simply need to keep the repair cost as low as possible.

For selected models, our Value Edition provides a more affordable digitiser replacement. It is a standard, budget-focused repair rather than the option we recommend when the Premium digitiser is available, but we still source the best quality we reasonably can within this price range.

Importantly, Value Edition does not include MrFix’s Premium bonding and specialist compression process. We make the differences clear before installation so you can decide whether the saving or the additional benefits of Premium matter more to you.

Original and genuine options where available.

For customers who want an original part, MrFix can also supply and fit original/OEM digitiser or screen options for supported iPad models where available.

The exact part, availability, price and any relevant iPadOS parts information are explained before you approve the repair.

Premium isn’t only about the glass

With our Premium digitiser and eligible premium repairs, the standard of installation matters just as much as the replacement part.

MrFix technicians use high-quality adhesive and specialist compression equipment during reassembly. Controlled pressure helps the new glass and adhesive seat correctly and evenly around the frame, helping to prevent lifting edges, dust under the glass and uneven touch response.

Where applicable, this higher-standard reassembly process is also used for our premium battery, screen and digitiser repair work. Our technicians take additional care with preparation, alignment, bonding and finishing because the aim isn’t simply to make the device work again — we want the finished repair to look, feel and perform as close as reasonably possible to a professionally assembled device.

iPads don’t carry an official water-resistance rating, so we recommend keeping your iPad away from liquids after any repair. What our Premium service does provide is the additional equipment, quality adhesive, controlled compression and technician care required to achieve the best practical standard possible for an independent repair.

Premium digitiser, Value Edition or an original option where available — you’ll know what you’re choosing, what’s included and what you’re paying before MrFix fits anything.

Knowledge

Your data during an iPad repair

Your privacy matters. MrFix does not wipe your iPad as part of a standard screen, battery or other hardware repair, and a passcode is not normally required for straightforward repairs.

We still recommend making a current backup before any repair. An iPad that is already damaged or experiencing a hardware fault can sometimes deteriorate further, so keeping important photos, messages and other data backed up is always sensible.

For liquid-damaged, no-power or severely damaged iPads, data recovery cannot be guaranteed. We’ll explain what can realistically be attempted rather than promise a recovery before the condition of the device is known.

Knowledge

After your iPad repair

Before your iPad is returned, MrFix tests the repair and relevant device functions. Depending on the work carried out, this can include the display and touchscreen, charging, cameras, speakers, microphones and Face ID where applicable.

For a digitiser repair, we check the display and touch response across the screen and make sure the device is functioning correctly before handover. We’ll also tell you what was fitted and anything relevant you should know about the repair.

A replacement screen or battery doesn’t need a special settling-in period. Once the repair has been completed and tested, you can charge and use your iPad normally.

Depending on the iPad model and the part you selected, iOS may display a parts notification or different component information in Settings. Where this is expected, we’ll explain it when you choose your repair option rather than leaving you to discover it afterwards.

If something doesn’t seem right after your repair, contact MrFix as soon as you notice it. We’d rather inspect the device promptly and determine whether the issue relates to the fitted part, the repair itself or a separate fault.

Knowledge

Common questions about iPad screen repairs

Here are answers to some of the questions we’re asked most often. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, just get in touch — we’re always happy to help.

Will my iPad be water resistant after a repair?

iPads don’t have an official water-resistance rating from Apple, before or after a repair. With eligible Premium repairs, MrFix uses high-quality adhesive and specialist compression equipment during reassembly to achieve the best practical seal possible, but we still recommend keeping your repaired iPad away from water and other liquids.

Will Touch ID or Face ID still work after a digitiser replacement?

In a normal digitiser replacement, the aim is to retain your iPad’s existing Touch ID or Face ID functionality by carefully transferring or handling the relevant original components, such as the Home button on older models. If Touch ID or Face ID is already faulty, or the components associated with it have been damaged, we’ll explain this before the repair where it can be identified. We also test relevant functions after the repair.

Can MrFix repair an iPad that is locked to someone else’s Apple Account?

A hardware repair may still be possible, but MrFix cannot remove Apple’s Activation Lock. Activation Lock is an Apple security feature and requires the appropriate Apple Account credentials or Apple’s supported account recovery process. A hardware repair does not bypass it.

Can MrFix repair an iPad another repair shop has already worked on?

In many cases, yes. Tell us about any previous repairs or replacement parts when you bring or send the iPad to us. Previous work can affect diagnosis, part compatibility and the condition inside the device, so knowing what’s already been done helps our technicians assess it properly.

Will I lose my data during a repair?

MrFix does not wipe your iPad as part of a standard screen, battery or other hardware repair, and a passcode is not normally required for straightforward repairs. However, we still recommend making a current backup before any repair, as unexpected issues can sometimes occur.

Knowledge

Preparing your iPad for repair

A little preparation can help your repair go more smoothly. Here are a few simple steps to take before you bring or send your iPad to MrFix.

Back up your data

We always recommend making a current backup using iCloud or a computer before any repair.

Know your passcode

A passcode is not normally required for straightforward repairs, but it may be needed to fully test certain functions such as Face ID, Touch ID, cameras or some settings.

Sign out (where possible)

If you can, sign out of your Apple Account and turn off Find My iPad. This isn’t always necessary, but it can help with some types of repair and testing.

Tell us about any previous repairs

Let us know if your iPad has had any previous repairs or if you’re aware of any existing issues.

Bring any accessories that are relevant

If the issue is related to charging, for example, it can be helpful to bring your charging cable or other accessories so we can test them with your device.

Knowledge

The questions people actually ask.

Straight answers to the things customers ask us most about iPad repairs. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, just get in touch — we’re always happy to help.

What iPad repairs does MrFix offer?

MrFix repairs the most common iPad faults, including digitiser (touchscreen glass) replacement, display replacement, battery replacement, charging problems, cameras, speakers, microphones and other supported hardware faults.

For iPad screen repairs, choose your exact model to see the available options and price. Most walk-in iPad screen repairs are completed in around 60 minutes, and completed repairs come with our 12-month warranty, subject to the warranty terms.

How do I choose the right iPad model?

Start by choosing your iPad from the model cards above. Depending on the generation, that might be a standard iPad, iPad mini, iPad Air or iPad Pro model.

Not sure which one you have? Go to Settings → General → About → Model Name, or check the model number on the back of the iPad. If the screen is too damaged to check, bring the iPad to MrFix and we’ll identify it before confirming your digitiser options and price.

Do you repair older iPads?

Yes. We repair a wide range of iPad models, from older standard iPad and iPad mini models through to recent iPad Air and iPad Pro generations. Parts availability varies by model. For very old models we’ll confirm parts availability before starting work.

How long does an iPad screen repair take?

Most iPad screen repairs take around 60 minutes.

More complicated damage or additional faults may require longer. If we find something that changes the expected repair or timescale, we’ll explain it before proceeding.

Can I visit without an appointment?

Yes. No appointment is required for walk-in repairs. You can bring your iPad to either our Edinburgh City Centre or Corstorphine store during opening hours.

We’ll check the device, confirm the appropriate repair and price, and get your approval before work begins.

Can you collect my iPad and bring it back after the repair?

Yes. For many Edinburgh customers, our iPad Collection & Return service can be the smartest and easiest way to get a digitiser repaired without making a trip to the shop.

For an additional £20, a MrFix driver can collect your iPad from your address, bring it to us for repair and return it afterwards. The service covers most of Edinburgh, including Corstorphine, subject to address availability.

Will my data be safe during the repair?

MrFix does not wipe your iPad as part of a standard hardware repair, and a passcode is not normally required for straightforward screen or battery repairs.

We still recommend making a current backup before any repair. For severely damaged, liquid-damaged or no-power devices, data recovery cannot be guaranteed.

Do you offer nationwide iPad repair by courier?

Yes. If you’re outside Edinburgh, you can use our UK-wide postal repair service.

Send your iPad to MrFix and we’ll assess the device and confirm the repair and price before proceeding. This means customers across Scotland and the rest of the UK can use MrFix without visiting one of our Edinburgh stores.

What warranty comes with an iPad repair?

Completed MrFix repairs come with a 12-month warranty on the fitted part and our workmanship.

It covers faults relating to the replacement part or work carried out by MrFix. It does not cover new accidental or physical damage, misuse or unrelated faults that develop afterwards. Liquid-damage repairs are excluded from the standard 12-month warranty because corrosion can continue after repair.

Can I choose which replacement iPad digitiser is fitted?

Yes. Depending on your iPad model, MrFix can offer different digitiser options.

Our Premium digitiser is our recommended aftermarket option for supported models. We also offer a lower-cost Value Edition, while original/OEM options can be supplied for supported models where available.

We’ll explain the differences, the price, what’s included and whether your model needs a digitiser or a full screen assembly before you choose.
