The laptop industry doesn't really want you to repair anything. Glued batteries, soldered RAM, proprietary screws, "service exchange" pricing that costs more than a new machine. We don't accept that — and our workshop is set up to fight it.

Diagnosis before estimate

Drop your kit in or send it via courier. Within 48 hours you get a written diagnosis with a fixed-price quote. No surprises, no scope creep, no "while we were in there".

What we actually fix

Battery swaps to OEM-equivalent cells. Screen and digitiser replacements. Hinge and chassis repair. Keyboard and trackpad assemblies. Board-level fault tracing — capacitor, IC, and bridge work. Liquid damage rescue. Port resoldering. RAM and SSD upgrades to extend service life by years.

Honest economics

If the repair costs more than a refurbished equivalent, we tell you. We'd rather earn the trade-in than oversell the fix.

Can you repair MacBooks?

Yes — including board-level work, battery, screen, keyboard, and trackpad assemblies. We work to Apple-spec adhesives and torque values where applicable.

Most repairs are diagnosed within 48 hours and completed within five working days. Faster if parts are in stock.

Do you offer collection?

Yes. Within Watford, Hertfordshire, and London we'll collect, repair, and return at no carriage cost on jobs above £150.

Is repair worth it for an old machine?

Often, yes. We give you an honest written diagnosis with cost and a recommendation. If it isn't worth fixing, we'll say so — and offer trade-in or refurbishment instead.
