Camera Acting Like It Just Saw a Ghost?

Maybe it won’t open. Maybe it opens... but only to show you a foggy mess that looks like it was shot through a Ziploc bag smeared with toddler fingers and regret. Or it flips to the selfie cam when no one asked. If your phone’s camera has gone full diva, refusing to focus, snap, or even show up to work—you’re not alone.

Whether it’s a cracked lens, black screen, or your camera’s just taken an extended mental health break—we get it. And we fix it. Fast. No need to channel your inner National Geographic to get one decent photo. Let’s get that camera back to doing its one job: capturing your kid’s weird haircut in glorious HD.

Phone & Tablet Camera Repair – Barrie, ON

Your camera used to make magic. Now it makes blurry blobs and existential dread.

Let’s face it: your front or back camera is having a full-blown identity crisis.
Sometimes it won’t open. Sometimes it freezes mid-selfie like it’s buffering your awkward face in 1996. Or maybe it thinks it’s working but gives you a foggy, ghost-hunting aesthetic no matter how many times you clean the lens with your shirt sleeve.

If your camera's gone from crisp to “is this Bigfoot footage?” — it’s not your fault.
Lens cracks, busted sensors, app glitches, or a mysterious black screen of doom… we’ve seen it all. Whether your camera's playing dead, stuck in blurry purgatory, or flipping between lenses like it’s got commitment issues, we fix that.

What We Fix (a.k.a. No More Glamour Shots from 2010):

- Rear cameras that won’t focus, click, or even open
- Selfie cams that got stage fright
- iPhone, Samsung, Google, and even those “surprise” brands from your uncle’s trip to Asia
- Tablets that forgot they even have a camera
- Foggy, smeary, or shattered camera lenses (bonus points if you tried “fixing” it with toothpaste)

We Don’t Just Fix Cameras. We Fix Your Shot at Instagram Glory.

At Barrie Screen Repair, we don’t hand you back your phone and say “good luck.” We test it. We care. We get that your camera is how you document real life—like your cat being weird, or your kid licking the window again.

Most repairs come with a 2-year limited warranty — which means we’ve got your back if something weird happens (and we’re not talking about the bad hair days it captures). Regular wear over time? That’s expected. Sudden weirdness or failure? That’s on us.

Why Barrie Locals Snap Us Up (See What We Did There?):

- Actually local (we don’t send your phone on a mystery vacation)
- Friendly humans answering the phone (no robots named Chad)
- Fast repairs, real talk, and no upsells or drama
- Honest diagnosis — if it’s not worth fixing, we’ll say so

Signs You Desperately Need a Camera Fix:

- Front cam stuck on “abstract fog” mode
- Rear camera just shows black like it’s mourning
- Every picture comes out blurry... and you're not even moving
- You open the camera app, and your phone just closes it like “nah”
- Flash works. Camera doesn’t. It’s like a one-man band that only plays cymbals

Why Choose Barrie Screen Repair?

Sure, you could gamble on a sketchy repair shop in a gas station parking lot — or you could hand your precious device to someone who’s been doing this for over a decade and still gets excited about it. Let us break it down for you:

2 Year Warranty

Most places give you 30 days, maybe 90 if they’re feeling generous. Us? We slap two full years on most of our repairs. We stand by our work — and if something’s off, we want to make it right.

10 + Years of Experience

This isn’t our first cracked screen rodeo. We’ve been in the trenches for over a decade, fixing phones, tablets, and devices for everyone from teens who “totally didn’t drop it” to grandparents just trying to FaceTime the grandkids.

Thousands of happy devices

Shattered screens, dead batteries, charging ports packed with pocket lint, mystery software issues — you name it, we’ve fixed it. Your device isn’t special… but that’s a good thing. We’ve already solved the same problem for thousands of others.

Skills to tackle the tougher jobs

Some shops only handle the simple stuff. We’re the place you come when another repair shop says, “Sorry, can’t help you.” Are we perfect? No. But we love a challenge, and we’ll try everything before throwing in the towel.

A real human who cares

We’re not a big-box chain or some faceless franchise. When you walk in, you talk to a real person who cares about getting your device back in your hands — and making sure you leave happy (or at least slightly less panicked).

We Don’t Just Fix It — We Back It Like a Boss

We Don’t Just Fix It — We Back It Like a Boss


At Barrie Screen Repair, we don’t do the old “sorry, no refunds” shuffle. Nope — we stand behind our repairs with a rock-solid 2-year warranty on most fixes.

That’s 24 whole months where you can strut around knowing if something goes wonky (and it’s our fault), we’ll make it right — no hoops, no “uhh, let me talk to my manager,” no disappearing act.

Important note: This warranty doesn’t cover drops, water damage, or anything caused by you accidentally treating your phone like a hockey puck (you know who you are).

Our customers love that we’re local, real, and actually give a crap. It’s not just about fixing your phone — it’s about proving you can trust us long after you walk out the door.

FAQs: Frayed, Fried & Flat-Out Dead Charging Ports

“The Port Report” – Everything You Were Too Afraid to Ask Your Phone

Great question — but here’s the truth: it depends. Sometimes we just need to replace one camera. Other times, we have to replace the whole drama troupe — front cam, back cam, wide lens, macro cam, depth sensor... yes, all five of them. Some phones act like the cast of a reality show — if one quits, the others stop working out of spite. Repairs usually range from $80 to $250+, but contact us so we can help you figure it out. We won’t overcharge, but we also won’t sugarcoat what needs to be done.

Absolutely. Blurry cameras are usually caused by cracked lenses, moisture inside the module, or the phone being carried in a pocket full of Cheeto dust and shattered dreams. We clean it, test it, and replace the module if needed. In most cases, it’s fixable — and fast.

Could be either. Sometimes the app is just throwing a tantrum (easy fix), but other times the camera module is dead and dragging the app down with it. We’ll do a quick diagnostic and figure out if you need a repair or just a digital slap on the wrist.

Yes, we fix them all. Selfie cam, rear cam, ultra-wide, telephoto, the weird little depth sensor no one uses but your phone freaks out if it’s missing — we’ve got you. iPhones, Samsungs, Google Pixels, mystery phones from eBay — if it has a lens, we can fix it.

That’s like having a sandwich with no bread. It happens. The flash runs on a different circuit than the camera itself, and sometimes it burns out or breaks. We can replace it separately — or bundle it in if both need to be fixed. Let us know what's acting up and we’ll sort it.

Yes — but fair warning: sometimes that’s all you need, and sometimes the damage runs deeper. If the lens is scratched or the sensor’s toast, we might have to swap the whole camera module. We’ll inspect it first and give you the honest truth.

Most of the time, yes. If we have the part in stock, we can usually fix it in 1–2 hours. If your phone is the rare imported model from the Planet Zog, we may need to order parts. But we’ll always be upfront about timelines.

Yep — 2-year limited warranty. That means if your camera randomly stops working due to a bad part or faulty install, we’ll fix it free. But if it breaks because you went rock climbing with it or dropped it in the toilet… that one’s on you.

<strong>Short answer: no, not 100%.</strong> Once a device is opened, it’s no longer guaranteed waterproof. We reseal it as best we can, but if you’re planning to shoot underwater shark documentaries with your phone… maybe don’t.

Sure — if you enjoy guessing what you're photographing. Some broken cameras also cause app glitches, slowdowns, or kill flashlight and Face ID functions, so it’s more than just a "minor annoyance." Best to fix it before it messes with your whole vibe.

Your Camera’s on Strike. This Guy Gets It.

Look at him. Just laying there. Not a care in the world.
Much like your phone's rear camera, which hasn’t worked since that one time you dropped it “just a little.”

Your selfie cam? It’s pulling a gnome too — completely checked out. Meanwhile, you're stuck taking screenshots of blurry video calls just to get one usable photo.

But hey, you don’t have to live like this.
We fix lazy, broken, and mysteriously moody cameras on phones and tablets — fast. No spells, no gnome magic, no judgment.

Just clear shots, working flash, and the ability to document your cat doing weird stuff again.
