MacBook Pro 14-inch A3426 Water Damage Repair Chemical Wash

MacBook Pro 14-inch A3426 water damage repair — questions people actually ask

How much to fix a MacBook Pro 14-inch A3426 water damage in Singapore?

We quote this one after looking at the laptop rather than publishing a figure, because what it costs depends on what we find once it's open. The check is free and there's no charge if we can't fix it. Bring it to any branch, or message us a photo and a description of what it's doing.

How do I know if my MacBook Pro 14-inch A3426 has water damage?

There's a liquid contact indicator inside the SIM tray or the port — a small white sticker that turns pink or red once it's been wet. Beyond that: a screen that flickers or shows odd colours, a speaker that sounds muffled, charging that stops working, or a laptop that gets hot doing nothing. Power it off, don't plug it in to test it, and skip the bag of rice — it does nothing except waste the hours that matter, because corrosion starts on the board straight away.

How long does MacBook Pro 14-inch A3426 water damage repair take?

We give you a timeframe after the free diagnosis, not before it. Board-level work is the one kind of repair where an upfront promise would be a guess — some go back the same day, others need longer on the bench. What we will tell you is what we found and how long it'll take, before you decide.

What does the chemical wash involve?

The board comes out and goes through an ultrasonic clean that lifts the corrosion liquid leaves behind, then it's dried, inspected under magnification and tested. It's the step that gives a wet laptop its best chance. Whether it's enough on its own depends on how long it sat wet and whether anyone tried to charge it.

Is my data safe, and do you need my passcode?

Back the laptop up now if it still turns on. On this kind of repair we work on the board itself and your storage usually comes through untouched — but a laptop that has been through liquid or a power fault can lose data before it ever reaches us, and nobody honest will promise otherwise. We don't wipe anything ourselves. We'll ask for your passcode only to test the laptop afterwards, and you're welcome to stay and watch it happen.

Do you give a warranty on MacBook Pro 14-inch A3426 water damage repair?

Yes — 100 days on this repair, covering the part we fitted and the work we did. It doesn't cover a fresh drop, liquid or a crack that happens afterwards. Bring the laptop back to any branch with your receipt and we'll sort it out.
