Mac repair in London, in plain English

Independent specialist, every current Mac model, one named engineer per job

Apple’s first-party repair service is good but expensive, slow for older models and unavailable for anything out of warranty with obsolete-part status. An Apple-authorised service provider sits somewhere in between. An independent Mac specialist like Verge Tech Solutions is the third option: on-site, same-day where possible, honest about what can and cannot be repaired, and roughly half the price for most out-of-warranty work.

We cover every Apple Mac currently sold and most Intel-era Macs from 2015 onward. The same senior engineer handles your diagnostic and your repair — Microsoft and CompTIA certified, with enterprise IT background that is unusual for Mac-independent repair. The written quote is fixed, the warranty is 3 months, and your data is treated as if it were our own.

Mac models we repair

Every current Mac, plus most Intel-era machines

The scope of what is economically repairable varies by model. Apple silicon makes some repairs straightforward and others impossible; Intel Macs are generally more open. We explain the trade-offs on your specific machine before any work starts.

MacBook Pro repair

14-inch, 16-inch · M1 to M4 Pro/Max · Intel (2016 onward)

Screen assemblies for Retina and Liquid Retina XDR displays, battery packs, Magic Keyboard decks, trackpads, logic-board component work and top-case swaps. Apple silicon MacBook Pros (M1, M2, M3, M4 and the Pro and Max variants) have soldered RAM and storage, so we are upfront about which repairs are and are not possible.

MacBook Air repair

13-inch, 15-inch · M1 to M4 · Intel (2018–2020)

Cracked screens, swollen batteries on older Intel models, keyboard swaps on butterfly-era machines and the more recent scissor-switch replacements, liquid-damage recovery and macOS reinstalls. Same-day service on in-stock Air display assemblies.

iMac repair

24-inch M1/M3 · 27-inch Retina 5K Intel · 21.5-inch Intel

iMac screen replacements on the 21.5-inch and 27-inch Retina models require specialist display-adhesive strips and a sealed-panel technique. We carry the kit. Fusion Drive replacement with SSD is one of our most common iMac jobs and the single biggest speed improvement for older Intel iMacs.

Mac mini repair

M1, M2, M4 · Intel (2014, 2018)

Storage upgrades on upgradable Intel Mac minis, SSD replacement, power-supply fault diagnosis, Ethernet and Thunderbolt port repair. Apple silicon Mac mini units have soldered storage but we can still help with macOS reinstall, peripheral issues, networking and external-drive configuration.

Mac Studio repair

M1 Max, M1 Ultra, M2 Max, M2 Ultra

Mac Studio is relatively new and most work we see on it is macOS-level: clean installs, user-account migration, Time Machine setup, external Thunderbolt storage and connectivity. For hardware work we assess on-site and can refer to an Apple-authorised service provider if the specific fault needs factory-only parts.

What we fix

The nine most common Mac problems we repair

Cracked or dim Mac screen

Liquid Retina, Retina 5K and 4K iMac displays replaced with in-spec panels. Same-day on common MacBook sizes.

Battery swelling or rapid drain

Swollen batteries are a fire risk and should be replaced quickly. New batteries cycle-tested before fitting.

Keyboard not responding

Butterfly keyboard failures, stuck keys, top-case replacements and trackpad faults on both Apple silicon and Intel Macs.

Liquid damage

Immediate cleaning, desiccant treatment and component-level inspection. Every case is different, honest assessment before work.

Slow Mac, beachball, full disk

Ageing Fusion Drives, low free storage, too-many login items, kernel panics. Often fully resolved in one visit.

Mac will not boot

Flashing folder, grey screen, apple logo then restart, recovery-mode issues. We diagnose the root cause and recover data first.

Lost files or failed drive

Photos, iCloud Drive, Time Machine recovery, Migration Assistant failures. No-recovery, no-fee on most jobs.

macOS install or upgrade issues

Clean installs, stuck upgrades from Ventura, Sonoma or Sequoia, failed Recovery Assistant, APFS problems.

Logic board faults

Not cost-effective on all models. We say so up front when a clean machine makes more sense than a board repair.

When to choose independent repair over Apple

Take your Mac to Apple (or an Apple-authorised service provider) when it is in warranty, when you have AppleCare, or when the part is on a known Apple repair programme. In those cases first-party service is unbeatable because the cost is zero or subsidised.

Choose an independent Mac specialist when the Mac is out of warranty, when Apple has classified the model as obsolete (anything older than seven years typically), when you need a repair done the same day rather than waiting a week for shipping, or when Apple’s quote comes back close to the cost of a new machine. That is most of our Mac customers.

Where independent repair does not make sense, very recent Apple silicon logic-board faults for example, we will tell you up front and point you back to the right place.

Mac repair FAQs

Questions we get asked every week

How much does Mac repair cost in London?+
Mac diagnostic is free when followed by a repair. Typical MacBook screen replacement runs from £149 to £349 depending on model. Battery replacement is from £99. On-site call-out is £80 per hour with no call-out fee inside our West London service area. You get a fixed quote in writing before any work starts, with no hourly creep.
Do you use genuine Apple parts?+
We use high-quality OEM-equivalent parts for most repairs because genuine Apple parts are tightly restricted to Apple-authorised service providers. Where genuine parts are available through legitimate channels we offer them at cost plus a small handling fee. Either way, the part we use is disclosed in writing on your quote.
Can you repair an Apple silicon Mac (M1, M2, M3, M4)?+
Yes, for most faults. Apple silicon Macs have soldered RAM and storage so classic upgrade work is off the table, but screen, battery, keyboard, trackpad, speakers, liquid damage, peripheral ports and macOS problems are all repairable. We will always tell you up front when a specific component on an Apple silicon Mac is not economically repairable.
Is my data safe during a Mac repair?+
Always. We create a safety image of your drive before any repair that could put data at risk, stored encrypted. Your files are never copied elsewhere or viewed beyond what the repair requires. We are UK GDPR compliant and your repair has clear ownership from booking to handover.
What warranty do you offer on Mac repairs?+
All workmanship is covered by a 3-month warranty from the date of repair. Parts carry their supplier warranty on top, typically 6 to 12 months on batteries and 90 days on display assemblies. If a repair we carried out fails within the workmanship window, we return and put it right at no extra cost.
Do you fix liquid-damaged logic boards?+
Sometimes. Liquid damage is the hardest category to predict. We open the Mac, photograph the corrosion, test the board at component level and give you a realistic recovery estimate. Many liquid cases are repairable with a proper ultrasonic clean and selective component replacement; some are not, and we say so rather than selling hope.
