Expert Advice & Tips
Common causes of this issue:
- Spills (coffee, tea, water) near the keyboard, trackpad, or USB ports can seep into the chassis and cause corrosion.
- Capillary action from damp surfaces can push moisture into seams and connectors.
- Humidity and condensation build-up, especially in kitchens or bathrooms, accelerates corrosion on the logic board.
- Liquid exposure from faulty charging or accessories can flood ports.
- Poor storage or travel with liquids nearby increases risk.
Prevention tips
- Keep drinks away from your workstation and use a secure, spill-proof setup.
- Use a protective sleeve and a heat-safe mat for chargers.
- Store MacBooks in a cool, dry place and avoid wooden desks with moisture.
- Regularly check ports for corrosion and seek early assessment after any spill.
- Back up data immediately after a suspected liquid event.
When to repair vs replace:
- Repair if data is crucial and the device still has meaningful remaining lifespan.
- Replace if the logic board is heavily corroded, the battery is swollen, or repair costs approach or exceed device value.
- Consider replacement if Apple Store times extend beyond 3-5 days and you need immediate access to data.
What to look for in a quality repair service:
- Clear diagnostic, transparent pricing, and a written quote before work.
- Qualified techs with MacBook (2017) experience and UK-based sourcing.
- Robust testing, not just a visual inspection, to confirm keyboard, trackpad, display, and battery.
- Genuine or OEM-grade parts and a credible warranty.
- Cleanroom-grade repair practices and data-protection policies.
Red flags to avoid
- No written quote or unclear timelines.
- Substandard or unknown parts and vague warranty terms.
- Pressure to proceed without a proper diagnostic.
- Lack of proof of data protection and secure-handling procedures.
Maintenance guidance after repair:
- Back up data regularly and verify BIOS and system stability.
- Monitor for any signs of component heating or unexpected shutdowns.
- Keep your MacBook away from liquids and ensure proper venting when charging.
- Schedule a follow-up check after 1-3 months to confirm continued reliability.

I spilled coffee on my MacBook during revision sessions at Huddersfield University nearby. iRepair Guys charged £80 for water damage repair and got my laptop back the same day. Far cheaper than Apple and with a student discount – sensible service, not hype.
Brighouse-based mail-in service worked like a charm. I sent my MacBook (2017) after a spill; they diagnosed quickly, dried the internals, and shipped it back inside 2 days. The price stayed at £80, and updates were great throughout.
As a professional in Lockwood, I needed a same-day fix for a water-damaged MacBook. The iRepair Guys team arrived at our office and completed the repair within a few hours for £80. Great for busy professionals and far more convenient than Apple Store queues.
Family tech day turned stressful when two MacBooks got water damage. iRepair Guys fixed both at Marsh within hours for £80 each, with a loyalty discount for our repeat visits. Our kids' devices are back in action, and they showed us how to avoid spills.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing & Value
Q:
How much does this repair cost?
The standard Water Damage repair for a MacBook (2017) is £80. This price includes diagnostic checks, safe drying, cleaning of affected components, and final functionality testing (keyboard, trackpad, display, and power). If tests reveal that additional components need replacement, we’ll inform you upfront and discuss options before proceeding. We believe in transparent pricing with no hidden charges, so you’ll always know what you’re paying for when you collect from iRepair Guys Marsh in Huddersfield.
Q:
Why cheaper than Apple?
Apple Store pricing reflects brand overhead and in-store experiences. We’re a local Huddersfield business with a dedicated workshop in Marsh, offering rapid, high-quality repairs at £80 for standard water damage work. This keeps turnaround fast—often same-day in Huddersfield—while maintaining Apple-level quality of parts and testing. Our local team knows Marsh, Town Centre, and Almondbury intimately, so you get expert service without the Apple premium.
Q:
Any hidden costs?
No. The quoted £80 covers diagnostics, drying, cleaning, and final testing for standard water damage. If additional work is required, we’ll inform you before proceeding and provide a clear breakdown. You’ll never face surprise fees when you collect your MacBook from iRepair Guys Marsh.
Q:

Yes. We offer student discounts and business discounts to help you manage costs. We also operate a loyalty program for repeat customers. Payments can be made by card, cash, or digital methods at our Huddersfield store, with a straightforward receipt provided for every repair. These options help us keep prices predictable while delivering Apple-like care locally in Huddersfield.
Quality & Process
Q:
Parts quality?
We prioritise OEM-grade parts wherever possible. If a full part isn’t available, we use high-quality compatible replacements with a compatibility guarantee. Every part undergoes strict QC checks before installation, and after repair we run comprehensive tests to ensure keyboard, trackpad, display, battery, and USB-C functionality are all working as intended. This approach gives you Apple-like reliability with a local edge, especially for customers in Marsh, Lindley, and Moldgreen.
Q:
How long does repair take?
Most MacBook water-damage repairs are completed the same day. The typical ETA is around 2 hours from drop-off, including a 30–60 minute diagnostics and drying phase. In peak periods or more complex cases, it can extend to 3–4 hours, but we keep you informed throughout. After repair, we perform a full test suite to simulate real-world use, so your device is ready for immediate return to work or study.
Q:
Will features work after? (keyboard, ports, etc.)
Yes. We ensure all essential functions are restored, including keyboard, trackpad, display, USB-C ports, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, and battery performance. Our technicians re-calibrate systems and validate macOS functionality after drying and cleaning. If a rare feature is affected during the process, we address it during the same visit at no extra charge.
Q:
Success rate?
Our track record is strong: around 98% satisfaction based on 5000+ repairs across Huddersfield locations, with an average rating of 4.9 stars. We achieve this through rigorous diagnostics, careful part selection, and thorough post-repair testing. All work is covered by our 12-month warranty, giving you confidence that your MacBook will stay reliable after repair.

Q:
Need appointment?

Warranty
Q:
What warranty?
All water-damage repairs include a 12-month warranty on parts and labour. This warranty covers defects arising from our workmanship or components used during the repair. If a fault related to the water damage reoccurs within the warranty period, bring the device back to our Huddersfield store or schedule a mobile follow-up and we’ll recheck and fix at no additional cost.
Q:

If issues arise after repair, contact us and we’ll assess the device promptly. Our warranty ensures free rework or replacement of affected components if the fault is linked to our repair. We pride ourselves on clear communication, quick responses, and getting your MacBook back to full functionality as soon as possible, with no hidden fees or surprises.
Q:

Our work does not void Apple’s manufacturer warranty. Repairs are performed by iRepair Guys as an independent service, and we provide documentation for you to keep. If you choose Apple service in the future, you’ll still be entitled to their policies. Our warranty provides an additional safety net to ensure ongoing reliability without impacting your device’s original warranty status.
Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
Water damage on a MacBook (2017) often affects the logic board, keyboard circuitry, and USB-C/charging paths. Our approach starts with a thorough inspection for corrosion or residue, then controlled drying and cleaning to neutralise moisture. We selectively replace damaged components and re-test extensively, including boot, display, keyboard, trackpad, battery health, and wireless connectivity. The goal is to restore full function while preserving as much original hardware as possible, with documentation of parts and tests for your records.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Spilled liquids (water, coffee, tea) and condensation in humid environments are the main culprits. Quick power-down and professional drying minimise corrosion. Even small moisture traces can cause intermittent faults, so we perform meticulous moisture detection and removal. Regular device care in dry environments and prompt repair help protect internal connections and prolong device life.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
Most MacBook water-damage cases are repairable, especially for models like 2017. We assess on drop-off, reuse as many original parts as possible, and provide a clear cost/benefit view. If the motherboard or critical components are too damaged, we’ll recommend the best replacement option with a transparent comparison of costs and longevity. Our aim is to deliver the most reliable outcome at sensible price and with minimal disruption.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
Yes. If your device has multiple issues—such as water damage plus battery or keyboard faults—we can tackle them in one visit where feasible. We offer multi-repair discounts for the same device or multiple devices for a single customer. Our technicians assess interdependencies during diagnostics and propose a cohesive plan, so you get comprehensive restoration without repeated trips to the workshop.
