Is it safe to ship a Mac from Bethesda?

Yes, provided it is packed properly. Use a box with at least two inches of padding on every side, never let the device touch the box wall, and remove any loose accessories. If you would rather not pack it yourself, take it to a FedEx Office or UPS Store and have them pack it. We photograph every device on arrival so its condition is documented.

What does the diagnostic cost?

Nothing. Diagnosis is free and comes with photos and a written explanation of what failed. If you decline the repair you pay only return shipping, and nothing else.

What warranty comes with the repair?

One year on new parts and labor, and 180 days on pre-owned parts and board level work. The warranty applies wherever you live, and if something goes wrong within that window we cover return shipping back to us.

Why not just use a repair shop in Bethesda?

Plenty of Bethesda shops do good work on straightforward jobs. The difference shows up on board level faults, liquid damage and data recovery from soldered storage, where most shops can only quote a full board replacement. That is the work we specialise in, and it is why customers ship to us from Maryland rather than paying for a part swap they did not need.

I work in cybersecurity near Fort Meade. Do you handle sensitive laptops?

We handle hardware repair only, we do not access, copy, or store any data on your device. Many of our MD customers work in government and defense. All repairs are performed in our secure Tampa facility.

Liquid Damage Recovery for Bethesda customers

Coffee, water and soda spills, including boards Apple has already refused to touch.

Liquid damage is the repair Apple will not do. Their only option is a full board replacement at close to the price of a new machine. We take a different route: the board comes out, goes through ultrasonic cleaning to lift corrosion out from under the shields and the BGA packages, then gets inspected under the microscope so every corroded trace and failed component is repaired individually. The sooner the machine gets to us the better the odds, so do not keep trying to power it on.

Bethesda mail-in repair questions

Usually not. Apple only offers a whole board replacement, so anything that needs component work gets called unrepairable. We ultrasonically clean the board and repair the corroded traces and failed components individually. Send it in and stop trying to power it on, because that is what turns a fixable board into a dead one.
