Replace or repair? We tell you honestly.
A cracked or lined panel needs a new display. But a black screen on a Mac that is still running, a dim backlight or the flicker you see when the lid opens is often a display cable or backlight-circuit fault — and that can cost a fraction of a new screen.
That is why every screen job starts with the R499 Apple diagnostic. You get a written quote showing exactly what is faulty before you spend anything more — and the diagnostic is waived when you go ahead.
What we fix
Display faults we repair
Not every screen problem needs a new screen. We find the exact cause first.
Cracked screen replacement
Full display-assembly replacement for cracked or shattered panels.
Lines, spots & dead pixels
Panel faults after pressure or a drop.
Backlight & dim display
Backlight-circuit, LED-driver and fuse repair — often cheaper than a new screen.
Flex cable / “stage light”
Display cable repair for the flicker that appears when you open the lid.
Hinge & lid damage
Bent lids, loose hinges and damaged housings.
Liquid on the display
Spills that reach the screen usually reach the board — we check both.

Logic-board graphics or display-connector faults diagnosed properly.

iMac 21.5″, 24″ and 27″ panels and glass.
Inverter & LED-driver repair

Questions & answers
MacBook screen questions from Germiston
Straight answers to the questions customers ask us most — on the phone, on WhatsApp and through voice search.
How far is Genious Services from Germiston?
About 15 minutes outside peak traffic via the N12 east to Jet Park. Free parking at Unit 28, 587 Jones Road.
Can you repair my device on the same day?
Very often, yes. Book a day or two before your visit — by phone, email or the repair form — and we reserve a same-day slot and have the part ready for you. Walk-ins are always welcome too, but then same-day turnaround depends on how busy the workshop is that day. Either way, we tell you honestly when you can expect your device back.
Do you repair industrial and PCB boards for Germiston businesses?
Yes, for no-power faults. We repair power-supply boards, PLC/HMI boards and motor-drive boards and issue invoices in the name of registered companies.
Where can I get a MacBook screen replaced near Germiston?
At Genious Services, Unit 28, 587 Jones Road, Jet Park — about 15 minutes from Germiston. Most MacBook Air and 13″ Pro screens are replaced the same day when booked ahead and the part is in stock.
How much does a MacBook screen replacement cost?

My MacBook screen is black but I hear sounds — is it the screen?
Not always. It can be the backlight, the display cable or the logic board. The diagnostic tells us which, so you only pay for what is actually broken.
Where can I repair a liquid-damaged MacBook screen?
At our Jet Park workshop. Liquid often reaches the logic board too, so we check the whole Mac. Keep it switched off until you bring it in.
Will my data be safe during a screen replacement?
Yes. A screen replacement does not touch your storage. Back up beforehand if you can.
Cracked MacBook screen in Germiston?
Tell us the model and we confirm the price and whether the screen is in stock.
