We’ve all had that heart-stopping moment when your phone meets water – whether it’s a toilet plunge, a spilled drink, or an unexpected rainstorm. Before you reach for the rice (which actually doesn’t work, by the way), here’s what really matters: turn it off immediately, remove the case, and gently pat it dry. Don’t try charging it or pressing buttons – that’s like revving a flooded car engine. At [Your Repair Shop Name], we’ve saved hundreds of waterlogged phones, and we can tell you that the first 24 hours are critical. Bring it to us ASAP, and we’ll use professional-grade drying techniques that actually work, not old wives’ tales.
You might be tempted to try DIY fixes, but here’s the hard truth: rice only absorbs about 5% of the moisture, hair dryers can warp delicate components, and waiting to “see if it works” often allows corrosion to set in. What looks like a working phone today might mysteriously die next week from hidden damage. That’s why we use ultrasonic cleaning and corrosion treatment to get at the water you can’t see. We’ll give you an honest assessment – if we can save it, we will; if not, we’ll tell you straight rather than waste your time and money.
The good news? About 60% of “dead” water-damaged phones we see are completely fixable with the right care. Our process includes a free diagnostic, deep cleaning of all components, and a 72-hour monitoring period to catch any late-developing issues. Plus, all our water damage repairs come with a warranty for your peace of mind. Don’t gamble with your phone’s life – swing by [Your Repair Shop Name] today, and let our experts give your device the best chance at survival. We’re here to help, not judge – after all, we’ve all dropped a phone or two in our time!
