Phone, Laptop & MacBook Repair in Tufnell Park

Where do Tufnell Park customers take a broken device?

Customers from the area bring their devices to our walk-in shop at 647 Holloway Road, 1.1 miles from Fortess Road and Tufnell Park Road. No appointment is needed, and diagnostics and repairs, up to board-level motherboard work, are done on site rather than posted away.

The area straddles the Islington and Camden boundary and spreads across three postcode districts, N7, N19 and NW5. Its station is one stop south of Archway on the Northern line’s High Barnet branch.

That single stop makes it easy to drop a device with us on the way to work and carry on from Archway station.

Most people who come in from the area have a device that has just broken, such as a cracked phone screen, a laptop that will not charge or a console that has stopped working, and want it looked at in person, today. Others want an honest view on whether a device is worth repairing before they spend money, and households or small businesses often bring in several devices at once.

How does a repair at our Archway shop work?

1. Call 020 7263 0607 or bring the device to 647 Holloway Road. No appointment is needed.
2. A technician carries out a free in-store check-up and diagnostics to find the fault. Water-damaged devices are excluded from the free check-up and have separate terms.
3. You get the repair options and the expected cost before any work starts. If the cost changes once the device is opened, we tell you before continuing.
4. Once you agree, the repair goes ahead. If a part has to be ordered, the timing depends on availability.
5. The repair is carried out in store and the device is tested before it goes back to you.
6. You collect and pay, and applicable repairs are covered by our published warranty policy.

What is the usual turnaround, and what is covered?

No two jobs are identical, but these are the usual ranges for the repairs we see most often.

Timings assume the part is in stock. Cover varies by the work carried out: our warranty policy gives 14 days on applicable parts and charging port repairs and 28 days on LCD and screen repairs, with one free re-repair for the same issue, subject to its conditions. Successfully repaired water-damaged devices carry a limited seven-day re-repair guarantee, and the exclusions are listed in the policy.

Repair times and costs vary depending on the device, extent of damage and availability of replacement parts. A repaired device may not retain its original manufacturer water-resistance rating.

What is the easiest way to reach us from Tufnell Park?

From Tufnell Park the quickest route is usually one stop north on the Northern line’s High Barnet branch to Archway, then a short walk. By road, Tufnell Park Road and Junction Road bring you out near Navigator Square in about five minutes when it is clear. The 4, 134 and 390 all run towards Archway, which makes this one of the few areas where the bus and the tube take roughly the same time.

If you are closer to the Overground, Upper Holloway (London Overground, Suffragette line) is the other rail option. Driving takes roughly 5 minutes outside peak times.

What do you need me to do first?

It is worth calling 020 7263 0607 before you travel, so we can tell you whether your part is in stock. Back up your data in the meantime if the device still works, and bring the passcode so the repair can be verified.

If the device has been in water, do not charge it and do not try to power it on. Bring it in as it is. If you are replacing rather than repairing, the NCSC recommends using the device’s own erase all content or factory reset before handing it on.
