MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) Screen Replacement
Cracked glass, dead pixels, lines on the display or no image at all — we replace MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) screens with quality parts and test touch, True Tone and brightness before handing it back. Most phone screens are done while you wait.
MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) Battery Replacement

MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) Charging Port Repair
A MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) that only charges at certain angles, charges slowly or not at all often just needs the charging port cleaned or replaced. We diagnose it free and fix the real cause.
MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) Water Damage Treatment
Liquid damage gets worse by the hour. We open your MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015), clean the boards with ultrasonic treatment and assess what can be saved. The sooner you bring it in, the better the odds.
MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) Motherboard Repair
No power, boot loops, no service, or faults after a drop — our technicians do board-level microsoldering on MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) motherboards, the kind of repair most shops send away.
MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) Data Recovery
If your MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) is dead but the photos matter, we can often repair the board just enough to get your data back — even from devices other shops declared unrecoverable.
MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) Keyboard Replacement
Keys that stick, repeat or don't register on a MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) — including butterfly keyboards — are replaced with the full top case or keyboard assembly, with the trackpad and battery tested afterwards.
MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) Hinge & Housing Repair
A MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) with a loose, cracking or seized hinge gets worse every time the lid opens. We replace hinges, re-seat display cables and straighten or replace damaged housings before the screen cable fails.
MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) Fan Clean & Thermal Paste
If your MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) runs hot, slows down under load or the fans never stop, years of dust and dried-out thermal paste are usually the cause. We strip the cooling system, clean the fans and heatsinks and re-paste the CPU and GPU.

MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) repair FAQs

Most MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) screen and battery repairs are finished the same day; logic board and liquid damage repairs usually take 1–3 days because the board is cleaned, inspected under a microscope and tested. Walk into our Eastwood or Macquarie Centre store — no booking needed.
How much does it cost to repair a MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015)?

Can you repair a MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) that has had liquid spilt on it?
Yes. Liquid damage is the most common MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) repair we do. Keep it switched off, do not charge it, and bring it in as soon as you can — we open it, clean the logic board ultrasonically and repair damaged components with microsoldering instead of replacing the whole board.
My MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) won't turn on. Is it worth repairing?
Usually, yes. A MacBook Pro 15" (2012-2015) that won't power on is most often a logic board, charging circuit or battery fault, all of which we repair in-house at board level. Diagnosis is free, and if the machine can't be saved we can usually still recover your data from the SSD.
