MacBook Repair
Real MacBook Repair — Not “New Board, Wipe Your Data”
Most repair shops — including the Apple Store — fix MacBook logic board problems by replacing the entire board. That costs $700–$1,200+ and wipes your data. We do the opposite: we identify the single failed component (a power management IC, a blown capacitor, a damaged charging circuit) and replace only that, under a stereo microscope, using precision micro-soldering. Your data stays on the original storage chip. Most jobs come in at $149–$350 — a fraction of replacement — with a 90-day workmanship warranty.
We handle every Mac failure: liquid spills, dead machines that won't post, cracked screens, swollen batteries, T2 chip errors, keyboard failures, charging port damage, and post-drop no-power situations. Free diagnostic, firm quote before any work, no-fix-no-fee.
iPhone Repair
iPhone Screens That Work Like New — Not Just Fixed
iPhone 14 Pro and 15 Pro screens aren't interchangeable with generic aftermarket panels. They use OLED displays tuned to Apple's software — get the wrong part and you lose Face ID accuracy, True Tone color matching, and 120 Hz ProMotion. We stock OEM-matched displays for every current iPhone model so none of those features degrade after the repair. Same-day turnaround on screens and batteries; most repairs are ready in under 90 minutes.

These are the jobs mall kiosks and national chains turn away — the ones worth the 20-minute drive.
MacBook Repair — Board Level, Data Intact

We repair the actual failed component under a microscope, keep your data on the original storage chip, and charge $149–$350 for most jobs. Free diagnostic, firm quote before any work.
