You get the price before any work begins. If we find something else, we stop and tell you rather than adding it to the bill.
The exact price is confirmed before any work begins. Complex faults, including liquid damage, no-power, intermittent faults and logic board issues, carry a €30 diagnostic fee. If you go ahead with the quoted repair, the €30 is credited in full toward the repair cost. If the device cannot be repaired, no repair charge applies beyond any agreed diagnostic or assessment fee.
Typical turnaround: Same day for most models, subject to part availability.
12-month warranty on parts and workmanship.
Genuine Manufacturer parts available for many repairs. We’ll clearly explain the available quality choices before work begins.
We do not access your personal data during standard hardware repairs.
Before your device comes back to you, we test the repaired function and the key functions around it.

Know before you book
Can I keep using it? Yes — you can keep working with an external keyboard or mouse in the meantime. If keys or the trackpad behave erratically during important work, save often.
What a successful repair restores A successful repair restores the repaired input; typing or cursor response and the surrounding functions affected by the repair are tested before return.
Why does this happen? Often debris or a small spill under the keys rather than an electronic fault.
From our technicians A trackpad that stops clicking properly can be a swelling battery pressing on it from underneath. If your trackpad changed suddenly, mention it when you contact us — we’ll check the battery first.
On Mac specifically
What people usually notice The trackpad not clicking, not tracking, responding intermittently, an unresponsive click, or a cracked trackpad surface.

The questions people actually ask.
How much does a MacBook trackpad replacement cost?
Pricing depends on your MacBook model and chip generation. Each model has a clear price shown on its product page, and the final price is always confirmed before any work begins. Walk-in and prepay online prices are the same. Local Collection & Return in Dublin and local areas adds a flat 30 euro courier fee.
How long does a MacBook trackpad replacement take?
Typical turnaround: Same day for most models, subject to part availability. We'll always confirm the expected turnaround before any work begins. If a specialist part is not in stock, sourcing typically takes a few working days. We confirm timing with you before starting work.
Will my data be affected during the trackpad replacement?
No. MacBook trackpad replacement is a hardware-only repair. We do not access your data during standard hardware repairs, and it is never accessed, transferred or erased unless you explicitly ask us to carry out a data-related service. We recommend keeping a Time Machine backup as a general precaution before any hardware work.
Can I walk in without booking?
Yes. No booking is needed for most repairs at our Dublin 2 store. Drop in during opening hours and we will check the device, confirm the diagnosis, and confirm timing before any work begins. You can also prepay online to skip the queue at the counter.
Is collection and return available across Ireland?
Local Collection & Return is available in Dublin and local areas for MacBook trackpad replacement. Most collection and return repairs are completed within 3 to 4 working days. Book the previous business day, or before 10:00am, for priority same-day collection in eligible Dublin city areas where available. From elsewhere in Ireland, post your device to us.
Do you provide VAT invoices for business and school MacBook repairs?
Yes. We provide VAT invoices on every repair as standard. We support PO acceptance, asset-tag tracking, approved staff walk-in repair, and direct invoicing for business and school accounts. Send your team member in with the device, or ask us to arrange nationwide collection and return for fleet MacBook repairs, with terms confirmed per job.
Still deciding?
A human answers during opening hours — and if a repair isn't worth doing, we'll say so before you spend anything.
