$225+Power Surge, Electrical & Liquid Damage — What We Actually Fix
California’s grid, heat waves and older buildings put unique stress on circuit boards. We repair the damage other shops won’t touch.
Surge & Electrical Damage
A grid event, a nearby strike, or a faulty outlet can push thousands of volts through the DC jack, USB‑C port or Ethernet line. We trace the damage path, replace blown MOSFETs, fuses, TVS diodes and voltage regulators, and rebuild burned power rails.
Brownout & Bad Wiring Damage
Older California apartments and commercial buildings, overloaded circuits, and grid instability all stress charging ICs. We repair the resulting no‑power, no‑charge and intermittent‑boot faults.
Liquid Damage Restoration
Coffee on the keyboard, a spilled drink at the desk, rain through a window, or a plumbing leak. We strip the board, run it through ultrasonic cleaning tanks, remove corrosion and replace destroyed components.
Heat & Thermal Stress
Dust‑clogged gaming laptops and 24/7 workstations in hot California climates cook their own power stages. We repair vaporized traces, lifted pads and heat‑damaged sections that other shops write off as unrepairable.
Burnt Traces & Component-Level Rework
We rebuild burned circuit sections, replace damaged pads, and reball BGA components under microscope. If a board has physical damage, we can usually bring it back.
Data‑Safe Board Repair
We repair your original board instead of swapping it. That keeps your Windows activation, FileVault encryption, licensed software and every file exactly where it was — no reinstall, no data migration.

Frequently Asked Questions — California Mail‑In
Do you have a physical repair shop in California?Mail‑in

Can you repair a board damaged by a power surge or electrical event?Surge
Yes — surge and electrical damage is one of our core specialties. We test and replace blown MOSFETs, charging ICs, voltage regulators, damaged power rails and burnt traces. Many boards a local shop calls “dead” after a surge are repairable at component level. We also repair damage caused by brownouts, faulty wiring and grid instability common in older California buildings.
How fast should I ship a laptop with liquid damage?Urgent
Immediately, and do not power it on. Corrosion begins within hours and spreads across the board, so the sooner the board reaches our ultrasonic cleaning tanks the higher the success rate. Turn the device off, do not charge it, and request a shipping label right away. Liquid damage restoration starts at $249.
Do you repair both Mac logic boards and PC motherboards?Both
Yes. We service Apple MacBook Pro, MacBook Air and iMac logic boards as well as Windows PC motherboards from Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, MSI, Samsung, Razer and custom gaming and workstation builds. Work includes micro‑soldering, BGA rework, power circuit restoration, BIOS chip programming and data‑safe board repair.
