Fast Action Can Save Your Drowned Laptop

A liquid spill is a race against corrosion. Whether it was water, coffee, or wine, the damage worsens every hour the battery remains connected. Sergey provides professional liquid damage recovery in our Clayfield workshop to stop the decay and save your valuable data and hardware.

Expert Board Repair and Data Recovery

A spill does not always mean your laptop is e-waste. Sergey personally performs component level logic board repairs to fix short circuits caused by liquid.

With over 10 years of experience, he focuses on saving your original hardware rather than recommending an expensive board replacement. We handle all recovery work in-house at our Clayfield workshop, offering a 1 to 3 day turnaround for most initial assessments.

Signs your computer has a water damage

Common Signs of Laptop Liquid Damage

  • Keys, trackpad, or ports not responding
  • Screen flickering or staying black
  • Random shutdowns or overheating
  • Corrosion or residue visible inside the device
  • A laptop that won’t start after a spill may require further assessment. See our laptop not starting repair page.

If your issue isn’t liquid-related, see our full range of laptop repair services.

What Happens During Liquid Damage Repair

Liquid damage can affect multiple components, even if the laptop still powers on. For this reason, we inspect affected areas carefully to identify corrosion, residue, or shorted components.

Once assessed, we clean and repair the damaged areas where possible, focusing on restoring function while preventing further damage.

Macbook Liquid Damage

MacBook Liquid Damage Repair

MacBooks are sensitive to liquid exposure due to their compact internal layout. For this reason, we assess MacBook liquid damage carefully at component level and explain the condition clearly before recommending any repair.

When Liquid Damage Repair May Not Be Successful

  • Severe corrosion affecting multiple components
  • Power damage to critical logic board circuits
  • In other cases, delayed inspection after liquid exposure
  • Overheating can also occur by liquid exposure. Learn more about laptop overheating problems.

Even if repair isn’t viable, we clearly explain the cause and outline your options before closing the job.

How Our Laptop Repair Works

A straightforward process, explained upfront.

STEP 1
Bring It In or Call Us

Visit our Clayfield workshop or call us to discuss the issue. We’ll perform a quick initial assessment, ask a few questions, and check your device in for a professional diagnosis.

STEP 2
Diagnosis & Approval

Our technician pinpoints the exact issue and explain the repair options and costs clearly. If specific parts are required, we source them immediately. No work starts, and no costs are incurred, until you approve the quote and timeframe.

STEP 3
Repair & Collection

Once approved, we complete the repair with precision. If parts were ordered, we typically finish the job the same or next day they arrive. Every laptop is stress-tested for quality before we notify you it’s ready for pickup.

Note on Same-Day Service: We offer priority repairs based on current workload and parts. If you need it done today, please mention it when you arrive so we can check if same-day service is realistic for your specific device.

Prefer an Online Quote?

For simple laptop repairs, we can provide a clear quote based on the details you submit.
