Professional ultrasonic cleaning for liquid damage, corrosion, and buildup
Professional Ultrasonic Board Cleaning
This isn't a quick wipe-down - this is professional-grade ultrasonic cleaning for MacBook logic boards. When liquid hits a logic board, it causes corrosion that spreads over time, eating away at components and traces. A toothbrush and isopropyl alcohol can't reach everything. Our ultrasonic cleaner uses high-frequency sound waves to create microscopic cavitation bubbles that reach every corner of the board - under chips, between components, and in places no brush can touch.
Ultrasonic cleaning is the first and most critical step in any liquid damage repair. It removes all corrosion, residue, and contaminants so we can accurately diagnose what needs repair and prevent further damage from spreading.
When Your MacBook Needs Professional Cleaning
Liquid Spill Recovery
Coffee, water, soda, or any liquid on your MacBook. Ultrasonic cleaning removes all liquid residue and corrosion from the logic board - the critical first step before any component repair can begin.
Corrosion Removal
Even a small spill can cause corrosion that spreads over weeks and months. Green or white buildup on the board means active corrosion. Ultrasonic cleaning stops it in its tracks and removes all traces.
Humidity / Condensation Damage
No visible spill but your MacBook was in a humid environment or had condensation form inside? Moisture causes the same corrosion as a direct spill. Ultrasonic cleaning removes it all.
Short Circuit Prevention
Corrosion residue is conductive. Left untreated, it creates short circuits that can kill components over time. Thorough ultrasonic cleaning removes all conductive residue to prevent future failures.
Pre-Repair Diagnostics
Before we can accurately diagnose a liquid-damaged board, it needs to be clean. Corrosion can mask the real problem. Ultrasonic cleaning gives us a clear view of what actually needs repair.
Preventive Cleaning
Had a spill months ago but your MacBook still works? Corrosion could be silently spreading. A professional cleaning now can prevent a bigger failure later.
Our Ultrasonic Cleaning Process
Disassembly & Inspection
We fully disassemble your MacBook and remove the logic board. Every connector, shield, and component is inspected for visible liquid damage and corrosion.
Ultrasonic Bath
The logic board goes into our professional ultrasonic cleaning machine. High-frequency sound waves create millions of microscopic bubbles that scrub every surface - including under BGA chips and tight spaces no tool can reach.
Inspection & Diagnosis
With the board clean, we inspect under magnification to assess the damage. Now we can see exactly which components were affected and determine what needs repair or replacement.
Repair & Reassembly
If components need replacement, we perform micro-soldering repairs on the clean board. Then full reassembly, testing, and quality check before returning your MacBook.
Why Ultrasonic Cleaning Matters
Not the Same as DIY Cleaning
YouTube videos show people cleaning boards with isopropyl alcohol and a brush. That's better than nothing, but it can't reach under BGA chips, inside connectors, or between tightly packed components. Ultrasonic cleaning reaches everywhere - it's the professional standard for a reason.
Time Matters After a Spill
Corrosion starts immediately after liquid contact and gets worse over time. The sooner you get your MacBook professionally cleaned, the better the chances of a full recovery. Don't wait weeks hoping it'll dry out on its own - the corrosion is spreading.
MacBook Cleaning Service FAQ
Ultrasonic cleaning starts at $150 as part of our liquid damage diagnostic service. This includes full disassembly, ultrasonic cleaning, board inspection, and a repair quote if additional component work is needed. If the cleaning alone fixes the issue, you're good to go.
Sometimes cleaning alone is enough - if the corrosion hasn't destroyed any components yet, removing it restores the board to working condition. In other cases, cleaning reveals damaged components that need micro-soldering repair. Either way, cleaning is the essential first step.
We strongly recommend it. Just because your MacBook works now doesn't mean it's fine. Corrosion is progressive - it can take weeks or months to cause a failure. Professional cleaning now removes the corrosion before it causes real damage. Think of it as preventive care.
If your MacBook has liquid damage, Apple's warranty is already void - they have liquid contact indicators inside every Mac. Professional cleaning and repair from us is your best option for getting it working again without paying Apple's full board replacement price.
The cleaning and diagnostic process typically takes 2-3 business days. If additional component repair is needed, we'll provide a quote and timeline at that point. Total turnaround including repairs is usually 5-10 business days.
