Mac Support and Onsite Services
History and Experience
We've been repairing, upgrading and using Macs since the Beige towers of old (good ol' G3s). We've saved thousands of machines from landfill, and saved countless amounts of data and money for our clients under the MacUpgrades banner for the best part of quarter of a century. You can be assured of an honest and unbiased opinion to your questions. Please contact us for a pre-booking chat about any requirements that you may have.

Alternatively, if you have multiple machines to upgrade/repair, or would like one of our engineers to come and resolve any software or hardware issues, or any other consultancy services, then pricing is as follows:
- £160 per half day (4 hours)
- £300 per day (8 hours)
