What causes MacBook Pro LCD damage?
MacBook Pro LCDs are generally damaged from drops or objects landing on them and cracking. You may see what looks like ink blotches on the screen. This is where some layers break and the liquid leaks through.

How do we repair MacBook Pro LCDs?
The first thing we do is test the laptop to make sure it is only the LCD that is cracked and not a problem with the GPU or flex cable.
We then proceed to strip the laptop down so we can remove the old LCD. We clean as we go to get rid of any dust or dirt that may have got into the casing.
A new LCD is installed and checked to make sure it is working well.
We then build the laptop back up and send it down to our test bench where further tests are carried out.
MacBook Repair Turnaround Times
MacBook turnaround times can vary widely due to the complexities of the repairs. Unlike consoles or phones where there are a small amount of parts that we can keep on stock and therefore offer quick turnaround times, there are thousands of different models of laptops so it is impossible to keep all parts in stock.
Another issue is part supply. Most manufacturers do not sell parts, so we have to source them through 3rd parties. Unfortunately there isn't a one stop shop for all parts so sometimes we have to spend time sourcing them. There are also times when a part is only available from overseas - China and the US being the main options. Shipping from these countries can take a month, sometimes more so would lead to a long turnaround time.
Please be assured that we will keep you up to date on part orders for your laptop, and will let you know if we have to order from abroad. You will always have the option to decline a repair if the wait time is too long for you.
More straight forward repairs will be completed quickly.
If you have a particular concern about the turnaround time, please reach out to us and we will give you a more accurate ETA before you place an order with us. Please have the make and model number of your laptop to hand.
