Can you fix liquid-damaged MacBooks and iPhones?

Yes — liquid damage is a speciality. We perform ultrasonic board cleaning, corrosion treatment and chip-level repair in Claremont, Cape Town. Do not try to power it on; bring it in as fast as possible — the sooner we treat it, the higher the recovery rate.

Do you recover data from dead or broken devices?

Yes. We recover data from failed drives, dead SSDs, corrupted devices and liquid-damaged MacBooks and iPhones. We start with a free assessment. Logical recovery is done in-house in Claremont, Cape Town. For physically damaged drives, we partner with advanced recovery labs.

Do you sell refurbished Apple devices?

Yes. We sell certified refurbished MacBooks, iMacs, iPhones and iPads that are fully tested, cleaned and reset. Every device comes with a 90-day warranty. We also buy your old or broken Apple devices for cash or trade-in credit toward a repair or upgrade. WhatsApp us to see current stock.

Can you speed up an old MacBook instead of replacing it?

Often, yes. Many older MacBooks (2015–2019 models) can be significantly improved with an SSD upgrade and RAM expansion. This can cost a fraction of a new machine and extend its life by several years. We will assess your model and recommend the best upgrade path.

What warranty do you offer on repairs?

Every repair comes with a workmanship guarantee. If the same fault recurs due to our repair, we fix it at no charge. Screen replacements and batteries are covered for 90 days, while board-level repairs carry a 30-day guarantee. We use quality parts, but manufacturer warranties on components vary.

Do I need to book an appointment or can I walk in?

Walk-ins are welcome during business hours (Mon–Sat 09:00–18:00), but we recommend WhatsApping ahead so we can prepare for your repair and give you an accurate wait time. For collection services, booking is required so we can schedule our driver.
