Intel and Apple silicon MacBooks, from older Intel machines through to the current chips. iMac and Mac mini work is on brands we repair.
Signs a MacBook needs the bench
A swollen battery, a cracked display, or a MacBook that won't start. These are the faults we see most often.
Cracked or Bleeding Retina Display
We'll explain the proposed screen and match it to your model before you decide.
Battery Won't Hold Charge
A swollen or worn battery pushing against the trackpad is one of the most common MacBook faults we see — replaced with a capacity-matched cell.
Won't Turn On / No Boot
Logic board diagnostics to trace charging faults, liquid ingress, and no-boot issues to the actual component, not a full-board replacement guess.
How a MacBook repair works
We look at it
The diagnostic is free. We check the screen, the battery, or why it won't start, and we tell you what we find.
You get a fixed quote
We explain the part and the price. We only order parts once you've approved the quote.
We repair it
Screen, battery and charging-port repairs usually take 1 to 3 working days once the part is here. New parts fitted for those repairs carry a 12-month warranty.
If we can't fix it, the part isn't worth fitting, or the repair would cost more than the MacBook is worth, you don't pay for the labour.
Wickford, and the rest of South Essex
We collect and return a MacBook free of charge across Wickford SS11 and SS12.
Bring your Mac to 32 Glebe Road, Wickford SS11 8EU by appointment. If you're in Basildon, Billericay, Brentwood, Chelmsford, Rayleigh, Southend or elsewhere in South Essex, drop-off is by appointment, or collection is by arrangement.
Frequently asked questions
A few Mac questions, before you book.
Can I drop my MacBook off at the workshop instead of booking collection?
Yes, just call or message first so we can book you in. Drop-off is by appointment. Call 07367 652987 to pick a time. Free collection and return is for Wickford postcodes SS11 and SS12.
My MacBook is out of AppleCare — does that limit what you can do?
No. AppleCare has already ended, so there is no Apple cover left for a repair here to change.
What parts will you fit?
We'll explain the proposed part and fixed quote before you decide. New parts fitted for screen, charging port and battery repairs carry a 12-month warranty.
Can you help with a MacBook if I don't live in SS11 or SS12?
Yes. Collection is free in SS11 and SS12, and elsewhere collection is by arrangement. You can also drop it off at the workshop by appointment.
