Process guide

How Fixaviour mail-in repair works from booking to return.

What to expect after booking: sending your device, receiving your assessment and deciding on a quote. We explain the fee and each next step.

1. Book the diagnostic or recovery assessment

The process starts with the booking route. For standard repair cases, the opening fee covers the assessment route and both-way shipping. For data recovery, the first step is an assessment to determine viability and the safest route.

2. Receive your shipping instructions

After booking, Fixaviour sends the shipping guidance so the device can be matched to your job correctly from the start — see the shipping guide for how to pack it.

3. The device is logged in and assessed

Once the device reaches the lab, it is logged and worked through the diagnostic process. That can include fault isolation, board-level testing and condition review depending on the case.

4. You receive a written report and quote

The key moment in the process is the report. You receive the findings, the likely repair or recovery path, and the quote before any quoted work proceeds.

5. You decide what happens next

You can approve, decline or, in many cases, extend the quote window. This is a diagnosis-first model, not a surprise-bill model.

6. Repair, return and warranty

If the repair is approved, the job moves forward. When complete, the device is returned via tracked shipping. Completed repairs include a 90-day warranty for the specific fault repaired.
