Common Problems We Fix in Preston
Understanding why a problem happens helps you make better decisions — and helps us fix it faster.
MacBook Thermal & GPU Issues
Preston's freelance and creative community runs Macs hard. MacBooks used for design, video editing, and music production generate sustained heat that accelerates thermal paste degradation.
Virus Infections via Downloads
Preston's renter demographic often shares devices or downloads software from unofficial sources. Malware removal is among our top Preston services.
Ageing Machines Still in Use
Long-term Preston residents often have machines 8–12 years old still in daily use. We assess each one honestly — some are worth upgrading, some need to be retired.
SSD Failures on Older MacBooks
Pre-2018 MacBooks use proprietary SSDs that fail after heavy use. Recovery is specialised work — don't let anyone tell you the data is gone before trying.
