Replacing a battery in a modern MacBook Pro is a delicate task. Since 2012, Apple has moved from screwed-in batteries to those heavily glued into the top case. Our technicians in Canterbury use specialised tools to safely dissolve this adhesive without damaging the fragile trackpad or keyboard flex cables located directly beneath the cells. We also perform an internal health check on your MacBook Pro logic board and cooling fans, ensuring your laptop is running cool and efficient before it leaves our workshop.

Quality is at the core of our battery service. We avoid "budget" batteries that often use reprogrammed chips to hide a low capacity. Instead, we use cells that allow up to 1000 charge cycles, providing 2–3 years of perfect battery life for the average user. Your new battery correctly records remaining life and includes safety protections against excessive discharge. We provide a 1-year return-to-base warranty on every replacement, giving you far more peace of mind than the 3-month warranties typically found elsewhere.

What are the signs of a bad battery?
Typical signs include the "Service Recommended" warning, a trackpad that feels hard to click (swelling), or the laptop only powering on when the charging port is connected.

Can I replace it myself?
Modern batteries are glued in and require chemical solvents and precision tools. DIY attempts often result in punctured cells or damaged logic boards. Our professional service handles this risk for you.

What other services do you provide?
While we replace your battery, we can also address other common faults, such as MacBook Pro screen repairs or logic board restoration.
