Before you bring it in, check these common simple fixes.
Still not charging? Then you likely have a dead battery or port fault.
Batteries are consumables. If yours is over 3-4 years old or says "Service Recommended", it's time for a new one.
The charging port inside the Mac can fail or get burnt pins from arcing. We replace this internal board.
The "U2", "CD3215", or "ISL" charging chips on the motherboard can fail. We do component-level repairs.
Even a small splash near the charging port can corrode the power lines. We ultrasonically clean and repair traces.
We plug your Mac into a digital voltage meter to see exactly how much power (Amps/Volts) it is drawing.
We open it up to check if it's just a simple port swap, a new battery, or board repair. You get a fixed price quote.
We conduct the repair using high-quality parts and test the charging cycle to ensure it holds power.

It depends on the model. MacBook Air batteries are typically ÂŖ80-ÂŖ120 fitted. Pro models (especially glued-in Retina ones) cost slightly more. We use high-quality cells that match Apple's original specification.
It's possible! We can test your charger in-store for free in about 30 seconds. Genuine Apple chargers are reliable, but the cables (especially MagSafe 2 and USB-C) fray often near the connector.
Yes, absolutely. If your battery and charger are fine but the Mac won't turn on, it's a motherboard fault. We diagnose and repair the specific blown components on the board.
