How much does MacBook screen replacement cost in Melbourne?

MacBook Air screen replacement costs $299–$399 for M1/M2 models. Intel MacBook Pro screens typically cost $249–$349. Prices vary by model and screen type. We source quality replacements and provide a fixed quote before starting.

Can you repair M1 and M2 MacBooks?

Yes. While M1 and M2 chips are soldered (not user-upgradeable), most repairs — screens, batteries, keyboards, charging ports — are still possible. Logic board-level faults on M-series require specialist diagnosis, which we provide with an honest recommendation.

Is it worth fixing a 2018 MacBook Pro?

Generally yes for isolated faults — a battery or screen replacement on a 2018 MBP is usually worthwhile given the machine's original value. However, if the keyboard (butterfly mechanism) and battery are both failing, the repair cost can approach replacement territory. We'll assess and advise honestly.

How long does MacBook battery replacement take?

Most MacBook battery replacements take 1–2 days due to part sourcing. If we have the correct battery in stock, same-day completion is possible. Swollen batteries are treated as urgent — extended swelling can damage the trackpad and chassis.

Can you recover data from a MacBook that won't boot?

Yes, in many cases. We use Target Disk Mode, external SSD adapters, and macOS recovery tools. T2 chip encryption on 2018+ Intel Macs and Apple Silicon Macs means data is protected — but also harder to recover without the login credentials. We discuss this during assessment.

Do you repair iMacs as well as MacBooks?

Yes. iMac screen replacements, RAM upgrades, HDD-to-SSD conversions, and performance repairs are all available. iMacs require specific tools for screen removal — workshop-based repairs only for iMacs.

What is your MacBook repair warranty?

We provide a 90-day warranty on all parts and labour. If a component we installed fails under normal use within 90 days, we repair or replace it at no charge.

Repair vs Replace

Decision Guide

Is Your MacBook Worth Repairing?

Repair it:

Battery, screen, keyboard, or liquid damage on a MacBook under 7 years old — MacBooks hold value and last longer than most laptops. Usually worth fixing.

Consider replacement:

T2 chip or M-series logic board failure is often uneconomical to repair. Pre-2019 MacBooks with multiple faults may be approaching end-of-life.

Check support status:

Apple drops older Macs from macOS updates. A Mac that can't run the latest macOS is a security risk. Use our End-of-Life Checker.
