Water Damage: What to Do When Your Phone Gets Wet
By Khizar Asim · ·
Quick actions and professional solutions for water-damaged phones. Leicester's specialists in water damage repair and recovery.
The first 10 minutes matter most
Turn the phone off immediately. Do not charge it. Do not press buttons to test it. Water + electricity is what kills the board — not the water itself.
The myth of rice
Rice does almost nothing and can push dust into ports. Professional ultrasonic cleaning with isopropyl alcohol is what actually works — something we do at your door for most Leicester postcodes.
