MacBook screen repair in Ottawa

A dark or cracked MacBook screen is not always a screen. Before we quote a display, we confirm whether the fault is the panel, the display cable or the logic board — because replacing the wrong one is expensive and pointless.

Sound familiar?

  • Cracked or shattered glass while the machine still runs.
  • Completely black screen, but you can hear the fans start.
  • Flickering, colour bands or vertical lines.
  • Backlight only appears at certain lid angles.
  • An external monitor works, the built-in screen does not.

What a screen repair includes

We fit the correct part for your exact model and retest the whole display system, not just the picture.

  • Display assembly or panel replacement, depending on your model
  • Display-cable and backlight-circuit testing before parts are ordered
  • Hinge, clutch cover and antenna reassembly
  • Camera and True Tone checked after fitting where applicable
  • Brightness, dead-pixel and burn-in testing on the bench

Why we do not publish one screen price

A Retina display assembly is a completely different job — and part cost — than an older panel swap. We identify your model from the serial number and quote that, in writing, instead of advertising a price that will not apply to you.

Common questions

How much is MacBook screen repair in Ottawa?
It depends on your model, because Retina display assemblies and older panels are different parts. Diagnosis is $49 and is waived if you approve the repair, and you get the total in writing first.
My screen is black but the Mac turns on — is it the screen?
Often, but not always. A dead backlight circuit or a failed display cable produces the same symptom. We test all three before quoting.
Can you fix just the glass?
On most modern MacBooks the glass and panel are bonded into one assembly, so glass-only repair is not a safe or lasting fix. We tell you honestly which applies to your model.
Do you offer pickup?
Yes — free pickup and return delivery across Ottawa on repairs.
Will I lose my files?
No. Display work does not touch your data, and we back up first whenever a repair carries any risk to files.
