MacBook battery replacement
Fitting a new battery when the old one no longer holds charge.
What you will be seeing
If any of these describe your MacBook, this is the repair you need.
- Battery drains unusually quickly
- Device shuts down before reaching 0%
- Will not hold charge overnight
- Device only works while plugged in
- Swollen battery lifting the screen or case
How we do it
We test the existing battery health and charging behaviour to confirm the battery is the cause rather than a charging or software fault. The old cell is removed, a replacement is fitted, and we run a charge cycle test before returning the device. If you have a swollen battery, stop using the device and bring it in — swollen cells are a safety risk.

Questions about this repair
Can you replace my phone battery?
Yes. If your phone drains quickly, shuts down before reaching 0% or only works while plugged in, a replacement battery usually solves it. We test the battery first to confirm that is genuinely the cause rather than a charging or software fault.
Do you repair MacBooks?
Yes. We work on MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models, including screens, batteries, keyboards, charging faults, overheating, storage upgrades and macOS reinstallation.
