Emergency Repair NowAt JTG Systems, we provide emergency water damage repair services across the Niagara region. Our expert technicians specialize in iPhone liquid damage recovery, MacBook spill repairs, Dell and HP laptop liquid damage restoration, and comprehensive electronics water damage recovery.
Emergency iPhone and Samsung phone water damage repair with component-level cleaning, corrosion removal, and functionality restoration.
Professional laptop liquid damage repair with complete disassembly, ultrasonic cleaning, and component replacement when necessary.
Comprehensive water damage repair for tablets, gaming devices, and other electronics with specialized cleaning and restoration techniques.
Turn OFF device immediately - don't try to turn it on. Remove battery if possible (phones/tablets). DO NOT use rice, hair dryer, or heat - this can cause permanent damage.
Shake out excess liquid gently. Remove case, SIM card, memory cards. If comfortable, remove battery. Avoid pressing buttons or plugging in chargers - this can short circuit components.
Bring device to JTG Systems immediately. The longer you wait, the more corrosion develops. We provide emergency same-day service for water damage cases.
Never use rice (traps moisture and debris), never use heat (hair dryer, oven, radiator), never try to turn on or charge wet devices, never shake vigorously.
Complete disassembly, ultrasonic cleaning, corrosion removal, component testing, part replacement if needed, reassembly, and comprehensive functionality testing.
70-85% success rate when brought in within 24 hours. Fresh water damage has higher success rates. Most repairs completed within 24-48 hours depending on damage severity.
Immediate evaluation of liquid damage extent and device viability
Careful component-level disassembly and liquid removal
Professional ultrasonic cleaning and corrosion removal
Component testing, replacement if needed, and functionality verification
Rice is completely ineffective and can introduce dust, starch, and debris into ports and speakers. Rice has no special drying properties and delays proper professional treatment.
Professional ultrasonic cleaning with specialized solutions removes corrosive minerals and salts that cause long-term damage. This is the only proven method for thorough cleaning.
Applying power to wet electronics causes permanent short-circuit damage. This is the #1 reason water-damaged devices become completely unrepairable.
Devices should remain powered off until professional cleaning removes all moisture and corrosive residue. We test functionality only after complete cleaning and drying procedures.
Hair dryers, ovens, radiators, and heat guns cause component warping, solder joint failure, and battery damage. Heat accelerates corrosion and ruins delicate electronic components.
Professional drying uses controlled temperature and humidity in specialized equipment. Components are dried safely without thermal stress or warping damage.
Mineral deposits and corrosion continue causing damage for weeks after water exposure. Devices may work initially but fail later due to progressive corrosion.
Professional cleaning removes mineral deposits and neutralizes corrosion. This prevents delayed failures and ensures long-term reliability after water damage.

Requires intensive cleaning to remove sticky residues
Recovery Rate: 50-65%
Aggressive corrosion requires immediate professional treatment
Different liquids leave different residues. Fresh water evaporates cleanly, but sugary drinks leave sticky films that trap moisture and conduct electricity. Salt water and bodily fluids are highly corrosive and begin damaging components immediately. Our cleaning process is customized based on liquid type for optimal recovery results.
Niagara's proximity to the Falls creates consistently high humidity levels (often 70-85%). This slows evaporation and keeps moisture trapped in electronic devices longer, increasing corrosion risk.
Niagara region has extremely hard water with high calcium and magnesium content. These minerals leave conductive deposits on circuit boards that cause ongoing electrical problems.
Extreme temperature changes from -20°C winters to +30°C summers cause condensation formation inside devices, leading to delayed water damage even without direct liquid exposure.
Lake Erie and Ontario create sudden weather changes with high humidity spikes. Devices moved from air conditioning to humid outdoor conditions develop internal condensation.
Maid of the Mist, Journey Behind the Falls, and waterfront dining create high-risk environments. Tourists frequently experience phone and camera water damage during Niagara attractions.
We understand Niagara's unique environmental challenges. Our cleaning processes are specifically designed to handle hard water minerals and high humidity conditions that affect electronics in our region.
| Device Type | Visible Signs | Internal Risk | Success Rate | Price Range | Timeline |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| iPhone 15/14/13 | Screen works, no physical damage | Low - modern water resistance | 90-95% | $149-$199 | 24-48 hours |
| MacBook Air 2018-2023 | Powers on, keyboard issues | Medium - liquid on logic board | 75-85% | $249-$349 | 2-3 days |
| Dell/HP Laptop | No power, liquid visible | High - motherboard corrosion | 65-75% | $199-$299 | 3-5 days |
| Samsung Galaxy | Screen flickering, audio distorted | Medium - water in ports/speakers | 80-88% | $159-$219 | 24-48 hours |
| iPad/Tablet | Touch not responding, screen dim | Low-Medium - sealed design | 85-92% | $179-$249 | 2-3 days |
Many customers wait until their device stops working completely before seeking help. By this time, corrosion has usually caused permanent damage. If you notice ANY of these warning signs after water exposure, bring your device in immediately for professional cleaning and assessment.
