Warranty and repair policy
Warranty coverage and exclusionsShow detailsHide details
Completed standard repairs include a 6-month warranty covering the replacement part and labour.
If a device has previous liquid damage and needs a different repair, only the part repaired or replaced in this visit is covered, not the whole device.
- a new drop or impact
- new or repeated liquid exposure
- misuse or accidental damage
- third-party opening, repair or modification
- a new unrelated fault
No Fix, No Charge detailsShow detailsHide details
If a diagnosed component is replaced and tested but does not resolve the fault, there is no charge. This also applies if added faults are found, or if the final price is higher than advised and you choose not to continue. For an unsuccessful repair, we do not charge for the repair attempt, a specially ordered part or a deposit already paid.
Inspection, repair or replacementShow detailsHide details
An inspection or disassembly fee can apply only when it is clearly disclosed and approved before work starts.
Repair can mean board-level or component-level work; replacement means directly replacing a component, not the whole phone. The right path depends on inspection. We generally prefer component replacement because board-repair labour can cost more, then explain the options before work begins.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you tell whether the MacBook Pro 14/16-inch M1 Pro/Max 2021 charging fault is the port or the charger?
We test the MacBook Pro 14/16-inch M1 Pro/Max 2021 with known-good gear, inspect MagSafe 3 seating plus USB-C charging behaviour, and compare battery reporting before quoting port-level work.
What helps most when I bring in the MacBook Pro 14/16-inch M1 Pro/Max 2021 for charging repair?
Bring the MagSafe 3 lead and any USB-C charger or dock used with it. That lets us reproduce the charging behaviour instead of guessing from a clean bench cable.
What if one MacBook Pro 14/16-inch M1 Pro/Max 2021 port works but another does not?
We compare the available charging points for this Apple-silicon Pro generation and note whether the problem follows the cable, charger, port, or accessory.
How do MagSafe and USB-C checks apply to the MacBook Pro 14/16-inch M1 Pro/Max 2021?
Because this model can involve MagSafe 3 and USB-C charging, we check both paths when your symptoms point that way.
Can debris or physical damage stop the MacBook Pro 14/16-inch M1 Pro/Max 2021 charging?
Yes. We check the MacBook Pro 14/16-inch M1 Pro/Max 2021 charging area for lint, movement, bent contact signs, corrosion, and visible impact before quoting parts.

Yes. MacBook Pro 14/16-inch M1 Pro/Max 2021 port repair is not promised as a blanket no-power fix. Back up first if it still starts; quote, parts, and timing follow inspection.
