Why Formby customers drive up
Formby is a strange spot for tech repair. Close enough to Liverpool that the chains have you covered if you fancy queuing in the city, but far enough that "popping in to fix a phone" usually means losing half a day. The independents tend to be Crosby or Southport town centre — both fine, both built around drop-off-and-come-back-tomorrow.
The Banks workshop runs differently: same-day, three honest pricing tiers, and you can wait in your car the whole time. From the National Trust pinewoods or the red squirrel reserve end of Formby, the A565 takes you straight up past Ainsdale, around Southport's edge, and into Banks in well under a quarter of an hour.

Common questions from Formby customers
Can I get an iPhone screen repaired the same day if I drive up from Formby?
Yes, if the part's in stock. Most iPhone screen repairs take 15-20 minutes from arrival to walking out fixed. Send a quick message with your exact model first — we don't carry every screen for every model, especially genuine Apple parts, so a 30-second part check saves a 14-minute drive each way.
Is there parking at the Banks workshop for Formby customers?
Yes. Free parking right outside on Gravel Lane. Most customers wait in the car for the duration of the repair — bring a coffee, we'll come and get you when it's done.
Will Apple still honour my iPhone warranty after a repair done in Banks?
For genuine Apple screen repairs (iPhone 12 and newer), yes — the part is iOS-verified with the green "Genuine Apple part" check in Settings. Aftermarket screens (LCD copy, premium OLED) are not covered by Apple, but the screen itself carries our own warranty. We'll always tell you which path applies before starting.
Before you drive over
Send us a message or call with your exact iPhone or iPad model. We don't stock every part for every model — especially genuine Apple screens and less common iPad parts — so a quick check saves a wasted trip. If the part's in, you come over the same day. If not, parts usually arrive next morning and we book you for the day after.
