Apple Repairs and Upgrades

At Core Competent Technologies, we help you get the most out of your Mac, whether that means replacing a failing component, upgrading an older system to extend its life, or solving tricky software problems.

We can help bring it back to life. Common issues we see include:

  • Bad laptop batteries

  • Broken displays

  • Failing hard drives that cause the Mac to show a flashing question mark at startup

We know not every repair makes financial sense. That’s why we always give you a clear picture of your options; repair, upgrade, or replacement, so you can make the best decision for your situation.
