The Bottom Line

The last, and more important step, is to make sure that whoever you are entrusting to fix your iPhone, iPad, or iPod has experience handling water damage. Good signs are if the employees give you honest advice and an initial estimate after physically seeing it. I will typically do an initial diagnosis right in front a customer and point out problem areas that I can see off-hand. If I dont think the device can be saved or that a new one is a better option, I can typically tell the customer that right off the bat.Any reputable company should be willing to help find the best option for you. If you dont feel they are providing you that service, walk away and try elsewhere.
