Spilled liquid on your Mac? Act fast — we repair it in Barcelona
Coffee, water or wine on a MacBook isn’t an automatic write-off, but time matters. The sooner we clean the corrosion, the better the outcome — so bring it straight to our Barcelona workshop.
After a spill the worst thing you can do is keep using it or charging it. Liquid corrodes the board even after it looks dry, which is why we alwaysopen and clean the board as soon as possibleto stop the damage spreading.
MacBook and iMac — don’t turn it on, just bring it in as quickly as you can.
Why speed matters with spills
Liquid leaves behind residue that keeps corroding the logic board long after the surface feels dry, especially with sugary or salty drinks. Rice does nothing. A proper ultrasonic clean within the first days dramatically improves the chances of a full recovery.
About your data
Recovering your files is our first priority on a liquid job. Where the storage survived, we back it up before attempting repairs and tell you the realistic odds.
Questions people ask us
It still turns on after the spill — am I fine?
Not necessarily. Corrosion builds over days. Getting it cleaned now prevents a working Mac from failing later.
Does rice or drying it out help?
No. Rice only delays the cleaning that actually saves the board. Bring it in instead.
Can you still save my files?
In most cases yes if you act quickly — data recovery is the first thing we tackle.
