Do not shake it
Dry only the outside with a soft cloth. Avoid rice, heat and compressed air.
The liquid matters
Ocean, salt water, pool and fresh water damage
Salt, chlorine and drink residue can remain after the outside looks dry. Water can reach the charging port, flexes, display, battery, cameras, microphone or board. The inspection route depends on what happened and whether power was applied afterward.

Clear answers
Water damage phone repair FAQ
What should I do if my phone falls in the ocean in Cancun?
Keep it powered off, do not charge it and do not keep testing it. Tell us whether it was salt water, pool water or fresh water so we can guide the next step.
Is salt water worse than fresh water for a phone?
Salt water leaves conductive and corrosive residue. Fresh water can also reach the port, flexes, battery, display and board, so neither should be treated as harmless.
Can you pick up my phone from my hotel in Cancun?
We can coordinate reception or pickup according to the hotel, area and type of damage. Message us with the hotel or area; a room number is not required.
Do you offer phone repair service in Cancun Hotel Zone?
Yes. We coordinate local service for guests and residents in Cancun Hotel Zone. Severe liquid damage, board work and ultrasonic cleaning normally require workshop handling.
Should I charge a wet phone to test it?
No. Applying power while moisture or residue remains can worsen a short. Keep it disconnected until it has been assessed.
Does rice fix a water-damaged phone?
No. Rice does not remove residue or corrosion and particles can enter the ports. Avoid heat, compressed air and repeated power tests too.
Can you recover photos from a water-damaged phone?
We can assess a data-priority route. Recovery depends on the condition of the board and storage, so no result is promised before inspection.
How much does water damage phone repair cost in Cancun?
There is no fixed price for every case. The quote depends on the liquid, elapsed time, power attempts, affected parts and whether board work or data recovery is needed.
How long does water damage repair take?
The timing depends on the condition and tests required. We explain the expected next step after receiving enough information to assess the case.
