Liquid damage repair in Kensington

Liquid damage on a high-value MacBook or laptop is stressful — and the decisions made in the first few minutes matter significantly. For Kensington W8 residents, we offer immediate phone guidance, fast collection, and thorough workshop assessment to maximise the chances of a full recovery. Homes and professional offices around Kensington High Street frequently house premium devices that are expensive to replace. We inspect board condition carefully, clean corrosion where present, and give you a clear view of what is recoverable before committing to repair. Parking and loading restrictions in W8 make free collection from your door the most practical option. We can often collect same-day for urgent spill cases. For full process details, see our liquid damage repair page. For local logistics, see our Kensington area page. For urgent help, contact us or call 020 7610 0500 immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions About Liquid Damage Repair in Kensington

My laptop still works after the spill - is it OK?

Not necessarily. Corrosion develops over hours and days. A laptop working immediately after a spill can fail days later as components corrode. Professional cleaning now prevents future failure.

Should I put it in rice?

No - rice doesn't help and can make things worse (dust, starch residue). Don't use a hairdryer either - it can spread liquid and cause heat damage. Just power off and get it to us quickly.

What are the chances of repair?

Success rates vary. Quick action (within 24-48 hours) significantly improves chances. Clean water spills have better outcomes than sugary drinks or coffee. We'll give you an honest assessment.

Can you recover my data even if the laptop can't be repaired?

Usually yes. Even in severe cases, we can often extract the storage and recover data. This is included in our assessment.
