Best Phone Repair Shop - 8 Years Running
T&G Repairs has been recognised as one of the best phone repair shops in Birmingham every year from 2019 through to 2026. We are proud of that - but what matters most to us is the trust our customers place in us every single day.
15+ years helping students
For more than 15 years, we have been helping students in Selly Oak and the wider Birmingham area with all kinds of technology problems. From cracked phone screens and damaged laptops to devices that will not switch on, charging problems, software issues, locked devices and data recovery, we have helped thousands of students get back up and running.
Over the years, we have seen almost everything.
We have had students walk through our door stressed, worried and sometimes in tears because they thought months of university work had disappeared. We have helped students who could not access their laptops the night before an important deadline, students whose phones suddenly stopped working, and students who were convinced their files, photos or coursework were gone forever.
In many cases, what someone needs most is not a sales pitch — they need someone they can trust to look at the problem properly, explain what has happened and tell them honestly what their options are.
"That has always been our approach."

Our approach
At T&G Repairs, we believe good service is about looking after people, not just repairing devices.
We will always try to explain the problem clearly, discuss the available options and give straightforward advice before carrying out work. If something is not worth repairing, we will tell you. If there is a simpler or more affordable solution, we will explain it.
No pressure. No unnecessary repairs. No confusing technical language. No hidden surprises.
Just honest advice, fair pricing and genuine support.
⚠️ Cheap doesn't always mean good.
quality you can trust
The cheapest quote isn't always the best option.
A low price can sometimes mean lower-quality parts or shortcuts in the repair.
At T&G Repairs, we believe in honest service, fair pricing, and quality workmanship. We always use genuine or premium-quality parts wherever possible, helping to ensure your repair is reliable and built to last.
We'd rather do the job properly the first time and give our customers confidence in the work we carry out.
what we can help with
Students come to us for help with:
Not sure what's wrong? That's completely fine too.
Bring the device in and explain what happened. We will take a look and help you understand the next steps.
A note for parents
Worried about your son or daughter?
We also regularly hear from parents from across the UK and around the world who are worried because their son or daughter is studying in Birmingham and suddenly has a serious problem with their phone or laptop. We understand how difficult that can feel when you are hundreds or even thousands of miles away.
Knowing there is a local business in Selly Oak that their child can visit and speak to face-to-face can give parents some reassurance too.
We know student life
We know students often have tight budgets, important deadlines and very little time to be without their devices. That is why we always aim to offer practical solutions and clear pricing rather than making a stressful situation even more complicated.
Technology problems can happen at the worst possible moment - during exams, before an assignment deadline, while completing a dissertation or just when you need your phone or laptop most.
That is why we have always tried to be there when students need us.

more than just repairs
For us, T&G Repairs has never simply been about fixing phones and laptops. It is about helping people when something important to them has gone wrong.
Sometimes that means replacing a broken screen.
Sometimes it means bringing a dead laptop back to life.
Sometimes it means recovering files someone thought they had lost forever.
And sometimes it simply means sitting down with someone who is stressed, explaining the situation clearly and helping them work out the best way forward.
After more than 15 years in Selly Oak, our values remain the same:
Honest advice. Fair pricing. Genuine care. No unnecessary repairs. No pressure.
You don't have to deal with it alone.
