Mac Repairs Glen Waverley

Expert Chip-Level Logic Board & Water-Damaged MacBook Repair

If you’re in Glen Waverley and facing issues with your Apple Mac, you’ve come to the right place. At IT-Tech Online, we are Melbourne’s leading Mac repair specialists, offering services that go well beyond basic repairs. Whether your MacBook is completely dead, water-damaged, or showing unusual behaviour, our chip-level repair service can restore it to full functionality—without the high costs of Apple Store logic board replacements.

Why Make the Drive from Glen Waverley for a Mac Repair?

Glen Waverley is a thriving suburb home to working professionals, university students, and business owners. When your Mac fails, it’s tempting to take it to a generic PC shop nearby or head straight into the crowds at The Glen. However, 90% of neighborhood IT shops are only equipped to swap out basic parts.

Rescuing data from modern T2 and Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) Macs requires a dedicated, high-tech lab. Our services are so trusted that customers from other states and countries send their dead Macs to us for data recovery and repair. But if you’re in Glen Waverley, you’re in luck—you’re just a short drive away from Melbourne’s most advanced Mac repair lab.

Our expertise spans a wide range of Mac devices, including MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac Mini, and Mac Pro. Our comprehensive suite of Mac computer services.

Beware the "$99 Water Damage" Trap

If you have spilled coffee or water on your MacBook, you might see local shops offering a “$99 liquid damage special.” Please do not fall for this. These cheap services usually consist of a technician simply opening the bottom cover and wiping the logic board with a toothbrush and alcohol.

This does not remove the microscopic corrosion underneath the chips. The Mac might turn on for a week, but the internal rotting will eventually kill the logic board permanently. At IT-Tech Online, we completely extract the logic board, run it through an industrial deep ultrasonic cleaning bath, and use micro-soldering to replace the specific burnt power ICs. We do it right the first time.

Advanced Mac Repairs for Glen Waverley Locals:

Our technicians are experts in all aspects of MacBook, iMac, and Mac Mini repair. We specialise in identifying and replacing individual faulty components—such as capacitors, power ICs, or logic gate chips—rather than replacing the whole board.

Chip-level logic board repair: Fixing “dead” MacBooks down to the component level.
Water-damaged MacBook restoration: Industrial ultrasonic cleaning and component repair.
Mac Data Recovery: Expert data extraction from dead or non-booting Macs. No Data, No Fee.
High-End Screen Replacements: The Apple Store often makes you wait weeks. We stock high-end screens locally for fast turnarounds.
macOS installations and SSD upgrades: System tuning to breathe new life into sluggish iMacs and MacBooks.
Everyday Hardware Fixes: Fast, reliable battery, keyboard, charging port, and trackpad replacements.

Our Bentleigh East lab is easily accessible from Glen Waverley—just a straightforward 20-minute drive down Waverley Road and Warrigal Road, or via the Monash Freeway. Skip the Apple Store queues and the hassle of navigating The Glen’s parking lots. We have free, dedicated parking directly outside our storefront so you can comfortably carry your device straight inside.

Don’t waste money replacing your Mac until you’ve spoken to us. Drop in or contact us today on (03) 9563 8588—let us bring your Mac back to life!

Went there last week to get my water damaged MacBook repaired. Cost was really fair and the service was professional beyond expectations guys. My MacBook was fixed on the same day within hours which is really helpful and more importantly impressive! Keep up the good work 😉

7 anxious days after I spilled a whole glass of water on my laptop, here's what I now know I should have done: 1 - DON'T put it in rice. Turn it off RIGHT away, dry as much as possible with is facing upside down. DO NOT try turning it on again. Leave it butterflied open and upside down on a pillow to dry. Don't touch it. 2 - DON'T bother taking it to Apple unless you have Apple Care (which I now wish I paid for when I bought the laptop). They couldn't do anything and I'd have to buy a whole new laptop and lose all data. 3 - TAKE IT STRAIGHT TO FRANCES. It was badly water damaged so it was more expensive to fix ($1200) but worth it to not lose my hard drive and be able to use it again for work. She fixed it in 48 hours and its working again WITH ALL MY DATA SAVED. Thanks for your amazing work Frances.

My Macbook pro had major issues including intermittent shut downs, a sick battery, and a screen that wouldn't close. Carl did a miraculous job repairing the above faults, plus more. The repair was completed quickly and Carl communicated well throughout the process. I highly recommend IT-Tech Online for Macbook repairs.

IT-Tech Online fixed my macbook doubled the RAM and replaced the battery for half what Apple quoted me to replace my broken logic board. They also cleaned it and replaced the missing feet on the bottom which was a nice surprise. These guys are life-savers and I couldn't be happier with their service.

Last year I spilled a whole cup of boiling tea directly onto the keyboard of my new laptop. At first, I went to the Genius bar at Apple and they quoted me the same amount as a new laptop and told me it was impossible to fix and that I had lost everything. When I thought all hope was lost, I found IT-Tech Online and I'm so grateful I did! I didn't lose any data from my laptop and it's working as though nothing ever happened months later. I'm so so so grateful to Frances for fixing this for me and the quick turnaround was just a bonus. IT-Tech deserve every 5 star rating they receive!!!!

I was referred to the "IT tech" shop by a customer of mine when I mentioned to them that I was having trouble with my macbook Pro 2011. I paid another shop to look at it only to be told that I would need a $800 motherboard to fix it. I said to that shop : "forget it". Francis fixed the problem + got me another battery (which the other place didn't pick up that I needed) + a new SSD harddrive & some handy software all for much less than the so called motherboard that I didn't actually need after all. I also got a discount when I paid cash + a 90 day warranty. I'm very happy indeed. Thank You so much Francis !

If you need your computer repaired this is the place to go! From the moment Francis called me after I put in my online inquiry I felt at ease and was told what to do before bringing in my computer, and a quick run down guide on a pricing quote. I still can't believe how quick the water damage was repaired on my brand new MacBook. Francis you are a lifesaver, her kindness and contagious laughter definitely helped as I was so stressed about my cat spilling water on it during my final uni assessments. 11/10 in my books! I can't stop telling you Thank you!
