Core repair services
MacBook Air screen replacement, battery swap, keyboard repair, and more. Bring it in, we diagnose it for free, and you get an upfront quote before anything gets opened.
Cracked display, dead pixels, pressure marks, or a MacBook Air screen that goes black but the laptop still runs. We handle the 13-inch and the newer 15-inch Air, from the original 2018 Retina model through M4.
MacBook Air dying after an hour of use, not holding charge overnight, battery swollen and pushing up the trackpad, or the Service Recommended warning in System Settings. Apple says MacBook Air batteries last 1,000 charge cycles -- most people hit that in 3-4 years.
Sticky keys, keys that do not register, double-typing, or a spacebar that only works when you press the left side. The 2018-2019 MacBook Air butterfly keyboard was Apple's worst keyboard design -- and we have replaced hundreds of them. Newer MacBook Airs (M1+) use the scissor-switch Magic Keyboard, which is more reliable but still breakable.
MacBook Air trackpad not clicking, phantom clicks, Force Touch not responding, or a trackpad pushed up by a swelling battery underneath. We diagnose whether it is the trackpad itself or the battery causing the problem.
Coffee spilled on the keyboard, water knocked onto the laptop, or a MacBook Air that stopped working after getting wet. Liquid damage is time-sensitive -- the sooner you bring it in, the better the odds. We do a full board-level inspection and tell you honestly what is salvageable.
How it works
For uncertain problems
A MacBook Air that will not turn on could be the battery, the charging cable, the MagSafe port, the logic board, or a software problem. A screen that flickers could be the display, the cable, or liquid damage underneath. Keys that stop working could be dust, the butterfly mechanism, or a liquid spill you forgot about. Stop guessing -- guessing costs money. Walk it in, get it diagnosed for free, and then decide with a real answer.
What to do next
Do not keep trying different chargers. Do not keep restarting it hoping the problem goes away. Walk the MacBook Air into the shop, get it diagnosed for free, and then decide what to do with a real answer in hand.

FAQ
Pricing depends on your MacBook Air model, year, and screen size. The 13-inch and 15-inch use different display assemblies, and older Retina displays cost differently from newer Liquid Retina panels. We diagnose for free and give you an upfront quote before any work starts. Call (619) 577-3065 or walk in to 1630 Grand Ave.
Most MacBook Air screen replacements and battery swaps are done same-day. Keyboard replacements on butterfly models can take same-day to next day depending on the extent of the damage. Water damage diagnostics take 1-2 hours because we want to be thorough.
A new MacBook Air costs $1,099 to $1,499 before tax. Most repairs cost a fraction of that, and your MacBook keeps all its files, apps, and settings. M1 and newer MacBook Airs are absolutely worth repairing -- those chips will be supported for years. Walk in for a free diagnostic and an honest opinion.
Yes. The 2018-2019 MacBook Air uses the butterfly keyboard mechanism that Apple eventually abandoned because of reliability problems. We have replaced hundreds of them. If your keys are sticking, not registering, or double-typing, bring it in -- we diagnose for free and can usually have it repaired same-day.
