Liquid damage recovery is a highly technical process that requires more than just drying time. Our technicians in Canterbury are experts in microsoldering and schematic analysis. When a MacBook arrives with a spill, we strip the device down to the logic board level and perform a deep ultrasonic clean to neutralise corrosive residues. We then identify and replace individual failed components—such as capacitors, resistors, and IC chips—to bring the board back to original Apple MacBook Air specifications. This precision work ensures your data remains safe and your laptop reliable.

Our process is designed for a high success rate. Once the logic board is chemically cleaned and repaired, we conduct extensive testing on all power rails and internal systems. This covers everything from the keyboard response to the MacBook Air display. For your peace of mind, all liquid damage board repairs come with a 1-year return-to-base warranty for defects. If we find that the device is truly beyond economical repair, we only charge a £15 inspection fee.

⭐ "Breathed new life into it"
"If your old MacBook is not working very well take it to Atlantis Wincheap Canterbury. I took mine to them and after checking it out they breathed new life into it. The laptop is now fully working and good for a few more years." — Stephen Clark

⭐ "Atlantis repaired it for a fraction of this"
"Really pleased with the repairs done to my laptop keyboard and usb ports. Another computer repair shop, local to me, had said the repairs would cost over £400 and were not worth doing. However Atlantis repaired it for a fraction of this." — Andy Hill

Is a MacBook ruined if it gets wet? Not necessarily. Quick action and professional cleaning can often save the device. Our £150 service specialising in board-level restoration is far more cost-effective than replacing the whole laptop.

Should I put my Mac in rice? No. Rice does not remove the corrosion that forms on internal circuits. Professional cleaning is the only way to stop the chemical process of liquid damage.

What if my device is local? You can visit our Wincheap shop if you are looking for MacBook repair in Canterbury for a face-to-face assessment.

How much does it cost to fix a liquid-damaged MacBook Air?
Our fixed price for logic board restoration is £150.00. This includes deep cleaning and soldering, saving you hundreds compared to buying new.

Is it worth repairing a 5-year-old MacBook Air?
Yes, absolutely. Because MacBooks are built for longevity, investing in a repair is almost always more economical than a replacement, especially for devices under 8 years old.

Can a MacBook Pro motherboard be repaired?
Yes. While manufacturers often see the board as one component, we identify individual failed parts. We also offer MacBook battery replacements if your battery has been damaged by the spill.
