Professional Water Damage Service for MacBook Pro 14" (A2779)

Estimated repair time: 3–10 business days, depending on the severity of corrosion, liquid type, and availability of internal components such as keyboard, trackpad, battery or board modules.

Liquids like coffee, soda and juice contain sugars and acids that leave corrosive residue under IC chips, connectors and flex cables. This accelerates board degradation and makes professional cleaning essential.

  • Full internal disassembly of the A2779 MacBook
  • Removal of moisture, residue and early-stage corrosion
  • Ultrasonic logic board cleaning when required
  • Power, image, charging and keyboard/trackpad circuit diagnostics
  • Replacement of damaged internal parts when economically reasonable
  • Data-preservation focused repair strategy

Important Warnings After Water Damage

After a spill, every hour counts. Moisture trapped inside the device creates toxic corrosion on the logic board and worsens the damage the longer the MacBook sits untreated.
  • Do NOT plug in the charger. Powering a wet board can cause immediate permanent shorts.
  • Do NOT keep trying to turn it on. Every attempt increases electrical damage.
  • Do NOT put it in rice. Rice can’t clean corrosion or sugar under chips.
  • Do NOT apply heat sources like a hair dryer. Heat can warp components and push moisture deeper.
  • Bring it in as soon as possible. Early professional cleaning drastically improves repair outcomes.

  • Boot looping or random shutdowns
  • Keyboard keys not working or repeating
  • Trackpad not responding or clicking incorrectly
