MacBook Repairs We Handle

Logic Board & Electrical Issues

MacBook not turning on

Power circuit failures, bad capacitors, failed power ICs. We diagnose with schematics and replace the specific component.

Liquid damage repair →

Ultrasonic cleaning, corrosion removal, component replacement. The sooner you bring it in, the better the outcome.

No backlight / dim screen

Backlight circuit repair. Often a failed fuse, filter, or driver IC. We fix the circuit, not replace the screen.

Not charging

USB-C port issues, charging IC failures, battery connector problems. We trace the circuit and fix what's actually broken.

Physical Component Repairs

Screen replacement

Cracked LCD, damaged display assembly. Quality replacement screens with proper calibration.

Keyboard replacement

Butterfly keyboard issues, sticky keys, non-responsive keys. Full top case replacement for 2016-2019 models.

Battery replacement

Swollen batteries, poor battery life, "Service Battery" warnings. Quality cells, proper installation.

Trackpad repair

Click not working, erratic cursor, physical damage. Often caused by swollen battery pushing against trackpad.

Liquid damage? Do NOT put your MacBook in rice. Do NOT keep trying to turn it on. Power it off immediately and bring it to us. Every power-on attempt after liquid exposure causes more corrosion and component damage.

MacBook Repair FAQ

How much does MacBook repair cost?
MacBook repair costs vary by issue. Simple repairs like battery replacement start around $150-300. Logic board repairs range from $200-600 depending on the component failure. We provide a free evaluation and quote before any work begins. No fix, no fee guarantee.
Can you fix a MacBook that won't turn on?
Yes, MacBooks that won't turn on are one of our specialties. Common causes include power circuit failures, liquid damage, bad batteries, or failed components on the logic board. We diagnose the exact cause with board-level inspection and repair the specific component rather than replacing the entire logic board.
Do you repair liquid-damaged MacBooks?
Absolutely. Liquid damage is a specialty of ours. We ultrasonically clean the logic board, identify and replace corroded components, and address any secondary damage. Success rates depend on how quickly the MacBook was powered off and brought in. Do NOT put it in rice - bring it to us.
How long does MacBook repair take?
Simple repairs like battery or keyboard replacement can often be done same-day. Logic board repairs typically take 2-5 business days depending on complexity and parts availability. We'll give you an accurate timeline after diagnosis.
Is it worth repairing an old MacBook?
Often yes, especially for logic board issues. A 2017-2019 MacBook Pro with a $350 board repair can serve you for years more. We'll tell you honestly if repair costs don't make sense for your specific situation and model.
Do you offer mail-in MacBook repair?
Yes, we accept mail-in repairs from all 50 states. Ship your MacBook to our Austin, TX lab, we diagnose and quote, then repair and return. Our mail-in guide has full shipping instructions.
What's the difference between your repair and Apple's?
Apple typically replaces entire assemblies (logic board, top case, etc.) at high cost. We do component-level repair - replacing the actual failed chip, capacitor, or IC for a fraction of the price. Same result, lower cost, and we often fix devices Apple declares 'unrepairable'.
Do you repair MacBook keyboards?
Yes. For older MacBooks, we can replace individual keys or the entire keyboard. For 2016-2019 butterfly keyboard MacBooks, we replace the top case assembly. For newer Magic Keyboards, individual key replacement is possible.

"Shipped my liquid-damaged MacBook from Seattle to Austin after watching Louis Rossmann's technical repair videos for years. Professional mail-in data recovery service - they kept me updated throughout the process... and successfully recovered all my data. Cost me 1/4 of what Apple quoted for board replacement."
