It can't be repaired actually. The back glass is fused to the phone and the entire phone will need to be replaced. If you purchased AppleCare+ at the time of purchase Apple would replace the phone for $29. If you didn't, the replacement cost, which is called an Out of Warranty replacement will cost $449.
