MacBook battery replacement · Johannesburg
Short battery life, a service warning or shutdowns when unplugged? We assess the battery and charging symptoms, match the part to your MacBook and quote fitting before work begins.
The right repair
Tell us how long it lasts, whether it shuts down and what warning appears.
Request battery assessment 02Stop charging or using it if swelling is suspected. Arrange assessment rather than pressing the casing closed.
Discuss safe assessment 03Adapter, connector, battery and charging-circuit faults require different checks.
Explore charging faultsAssessment before parts
A MacBook that drains quickly may need a battery assessment, while a machine that cannot charge may have a charger or internal charging-path problem. Tell us whether it runs on its charger, what warning appears and when the issue began.
A raised trackpad, separation in the case or pressure beneath the keyboard can be a reason to stop using or charging the machine and arrange assessment. Do not press the case closed or try to remove a glued battery yourself. Describe what you can see without opening the device.
Air and Pro batteries differ across models. A model name, A-number or model-label photo helps confirm the correct part. We check the proposed option and availability before quoting a replacement.
The quote should make the part, installation and relevant checks clear. Tell us about other power symptoms so they can be considered before fitting. Confirm the warranty and any collection arrangements that apply to your proposed repair.
Useful details first
If the MacBook can start, include the model name and the battery warning you see. If it cannot start, send a model-label photo and charger details. You do not need to know the correct battery part number before contacting us.

Prefer to call? 075 046 1725A service warning or very short runtime can support a battery assessment, but a MacBook that never charges can also involve its adapter, cable, connector or logic board. Include whether it runs from the charger, the battery warning shown and what happens when the charger is removed. The proposed battery must be confirmed for the exact model.
Before approval, confirm the battery option and condition, installation, post-fitting charging checks and applicable warranty. Ask for any extra work to be listed separately. A historical price for another MacBook is not a reliable quote for yours. If you have a current backup, tell us; if important files are not backed up, mention that before any additional work.
If the case or trackpad is being pushed out of shape, stop charging and do not press the case closed or puncture the battery. Contact us before transport so handling can be discussed. A swollen battery is not an ordinary quick-swap appointment. The condition of the case, trackpad and internal assemblies needs assessment as well as the battery itself.
