Every MacBook job is a little different, so we discuss the work and the price directly with you before anything starts.

No surprises and no hidden fees — you'll know exactly what's involved before you commit.
Most macbook repair jobs in Edinburgh City Centre are completed the same day or within 24–48 hours, depending on the fault and parts availability. If you book first thing in the morning, simple fixes are usually returned by the evening. For more complex jobs we can collect from anywhere in EH1 — Princes Street, George Street, the Royal Mile — and keep you updated by message until the MacBook is back with you.
Yes — we cover the full EH1 postcode area. That includes Princes Street, George Street, the Royal Mile, the Old Town, the New Town, Grassmarket, and the rest of central Edinburgh. Whether you need a workshop drop-off, a home visit, or doorstep collection, we adapt to fit your schedule.
All our labour comes with a 30-day workmanship warranty — if the same fault returns, we'll put it right. Parts we supply (batteries, SSDs, screens, keyboards) carry the manufacturer's warranty, typically 6–36 months depending on the component.
We repair every major MacBook brand in Edinburgh City Centre: Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, Toshiba, MSI, Razer, Microsoft Surface, and more. Business-grade machines like Lenovo ThinkPad, Dell Latitude/XPS, and HP EliteBook/ProBook are also fully covered. If you're not sure whether your model is supported, just send us a message — almost all are.
Usually one of: bad charger, worn USB-C/MagSafe port, SMC fault, or battery degradation. For Edinburgh City Centre customers we test the charger first (often the cause), then the port, then the SMC, then the battery. Each is a different repair cost — port replacement is moderate, SMC reset is free, battery replacement is the big one. We quote before any work and will tell you when replacement is more sensible than repair.
Yes. We replace MacBook batteries weekly for Edinburgh City Centre customers, and the procedure varies wildly by model year. Older Pros (pre-2012) take 10 minutes; modern Retina Pros and Airs are glued in and need adhesive-removing solvent, plastic picks, and patience. We use OEM-grade replacements only — no eBay specials — and reset the battery learning cycle before handover. 12-month battery warranty as standard.
Yes — logic board work is a real specialism and we do it. For Edinburgh City Centre MacBooks, common component-level repairs are: failed charging ICs, water-damaged trace repair, GPU reflow on older Pros, failed SSD controllers, and burned capacitors. We use a proper microscope, hot-air station, and microsoldering setup — not the "reflow with a hairdryer" approach you see online. Honest diagnosis and a frank quote before committing to anything irreversible.
