iPhone would not charge at all. They cleaned out the charging port, checked the whole phone over and saved me buying a new one.

My son dropped his Nintendo Switch and cracked the screen. Microsmith had it fixed by the next day. Great communication and really friendly staff.

faq

iMac repair questions

Do you repair Apple M-series iMacs?

Yes. We work on all iMac generations including recent M1, M3 and M4 models. Some repairs on M-series machines are more limited than on Intel models due to board integration, but we will assess and advise clearly.

Can you upgrade a slow iMac?

Often, yes. Older Intel iMacs with mechanical hard drives can usually be improved with an SSD upgrade, and some models can also take extra RAM. We check the model first and confirm what is worthwhile.

Can you recover data from a failed iMac?

We can attempt data recovery from failed iMac drives. Success depends on how the drive has failed. We will give you an honest assessment of likelihood before starting any recovery work.

How long does an iMac repair take?

Straightforward repairs such as SSD or RAM upgrades can often be completed same-day. More complex faults — screen replacement, logic board diagnosis — typically take 2–5 working days depending on parts.

Do you charge a diagnosis fee?

No. We provide a free quote before any work begins. There is no charge for the initial assessment.
