iPhone Back Glass & Housing Repair · Fixed by Post · UK Wide
iPhone back glass repair from £80.
Rear glass on 14 and newer, full housing on older models.
Shattered rear glass, deep scratches or a bent frame? On iPhone 14, 15 and 16 the back glass comes off on its own. On iPhone 13 and earlier (and the 14 Pro models) it is bonded to the frame, so the proper fix is a full housing replacement, we do both, by post, with a 6 month warranty.

Common signs your iPhone needs back glass or housing work
Cracked back glass is more than cosmetic: it lets moisture in, loosens over time and can stop wireless charging. Match whichever apply in the quote tool and we’ll confirm the right repair.

iPhone back glass & housing prices
How much does an iPhone back glass repair cost?
One fixed price per model. Where the glass is separate (iPhone 14, 14 Plus, 15 and 16 series) you pay for the glass alone. Where it’s bonded to the frame, the price is for a complete housing replacement, your logic board, cameras and battery move across into the new one. Parts, labour, testing and return postage included, 6 month warranty.

What a proper back glass repair actually involves
Back glass is easy to get wrong, glass forced off, frames bent, camera lenses scratched. Those are the things our process is built to avoid.
🧱
Glass or housing, we fit the right one
Where the glass is separate we replace the glass. Where it’s bonded, forcing it off damages the frame and camera bezels, so we replace the housing and transfer every component across.
🎨
Colour matched
The replacement matches your original colour wherever the part exists. If a colour is unavailable we tell you before ordering, never a surprise on return.
🧲
MagSafe and wireless charging tested
The charging coil and magnets sit right behind the glass. Every repair is tested on a wireless charger before it goes back.
🛡️
New water seal fitted
The adhesive gasket is renewed on reassembly, which keeps splash resistance meaningful, but no repair can recertify the original factory water rating.

iPhone back glass repair FAQ
Common questions
Because on the 13 (and on every earlier model, plus the 14 Pro and Pro Max) the glass is bonded to the frame, so the correct repair is a complete housing replacement with every component moved across. From the iPhone 14, 15 and 16 the glass is a separate part and much quicker to replace.
Yes. The charging coil sits directly behind the rear glass, so it’s the first thing we test after the repair, along with the cameras, flash and microphones.
Yes, wherever the part is made in that colour, which is nearly always. If yours isn’t available we tell you before ordering and agree an alternative.
Back glass on iPhone 14 and newer is usually done the same day we receive the phone. Full housing replacements typically take 1 to 2 working days because every component is transferred. Either way it comes back with free tracked postage.
iPhone back glass and housing repair by post, the UK specialist
Cell Devices is a Guildford based specialist offering iPhone back glass repair and full housing replacement to customers across the United Kingdom by post. Whether the rear glass is cracked, shattered or scuffed, or the frame is bent, our technicians fit a colour matched replacement, fit a new water seal, test MagSafe and wireless charging, and return the phone with a 6 month warranty.
Why the iPhone 13 costs more than the iPhone 15
From the iPhone 14 (and every 15 and 16) Apple made the back glass removable on its own, so the repair is quicker and cheaper. On the iPhone 13 and earlier, and on the 14 Pro and Pro Max, the glass is bonded to the frame. The proper fix is a complete housing: the new rear frame and glass arrive as one part and every component is transferred across. It takes longer, which is why those models sit higher in the table.
