Northcote's device-repair fix

A broken phone in Northcote? We'll sort it, fast.

Life in Northcote moves — school runs and swimming lessons for the families up around Westgarth, coffee and laptops along High Street for the young professionals, and late nights of live music at the Croxton, the Wesley Anne and the Northcote Social Club. A cracked screen, a phone that won't hold charge or a laptop that won't wake up brings all of that to a halt. That's where we come in.

iFix isn't in Northcote — we're honest about that. We're a short trip west at 95 Sydney Rd in Brunswick, directly opposite McDonald's, where our full workshop and parts stock live under one roof. For Northcote and Thornbury locals it's an easy run across the top of the inner north: jump the 86 tram down High Street and change across, or take a quick ten-minute drive along Bell Street and down Sydney Road. Plenty of our regulars are Northcote and Fairfield people who drop the phone in, duck across for a coffee, and pick it up fixed the same day.

Why locals make the trip to Brunswick

Because it's worth getting right. We're an Apple Certified repairer who've been fixing Melbourne's devices since 1999 — that's 25+ years and a 4.4-star rating from 309 reviews. We keep parts on the shelf for the phones people actually carry, so most repairs are done the same day, many while you wait, and every one is backed by warranty. No posting your phone interstate, no waiting a week, no mystery pricing.

💡 Cracked glass but the screen still works?

Don't sit on it. A hairline crack lets in dust and moisture and turns a quick, cheap job into a bigger one — and it's sharp on your finger and your pocket. Pop in from Northcote for a free quote while the display's still healthy.

Questions

Northcote repair FAQs

Is there a phone repair shop in Northcote, or do I come to Brunswick?
iFix is based in Brunswick, not Northcote — we're at 95 Sydney Rd, directly opposite McDonald's. It's a short trip west for Northcote locals: hop the 86 tram down High Street and change across, or a quick drive across the top of the inner north gets you here in about ten minutes. Plenty of Northcote and Thornbury customers pop in on the way past.
How long does a repair take if I come over from Northcote?
Most common repairs — iPhone and Samsung screens, batteries and charging ports — are done the same day, and often within the hour while you wait. That means you can drop the phone off, grab a coffee on Sydney Road, and pick it up fixed. If a part needs ordering we'll tell you the exact timeframe with your free quote.
How much will my repair cost?
Screen and battery repairs start from $89 and vary by model. Every quote is free and fixed before we start, so there are no surprises — call (03) 8383-1699 with your model or bring it in from Northcote for an exact price. See our iPhone pricing for a guide.
Do you fix Samsung, iPad and MacBook as well as iPhone?
Yes. We're a full device-repair workshop — iPhone, Samsung and other Android phones, iPad and tablets, plus MacBook and laptops. Screens, batteries, water damage, data recovery and charging ports are all handled in-house at our Brunswick store, an easy trip from Northcote.
Will I lose my photos or data during a repair?
No. A screen or battery replacement doesn't touch your storage, so your photos, messages and apps stay exactly as they were. We always suggest a quick backup as good practice, and if a device won't turn on at all we offer a dedicated data recovery service.
