If your MacBook has a cracked screen, a battery that won't hold charge, a sticky keyboard, or won't turn on at all, PCC Computers is Wollongong's local choice for fast, honest MacBook repair. We're based right in the Wollongong CBD at 132 Keira Street, and unlike call-out-only repairers, you can walk in, get a diagnosis, and often walk out the same day with a working machine again.

We repair every MacBook model — MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro (Intel and Apple Silicon M1/M2/M3) — plus iMac and Mac Mini. Whether it's a student assignment deadline, a small business owner who can't afford downtime, or a professional relying on Final Cut Pro or Logic Pro for client work, we understand a broken MacBook isn't just an inconvenience — it stops your work.

Laptop Repairs

Beyond Apple devices, we service every major Windows laptop brand — Dell, HP, Lenovo, Asus, Acer, Microsoft Surface, and more. Broken hinges, screen replacements, keyboard swaps, RAM and SSD upgrades, and full diagnostics are handled in-house by our Wollongong technicians. If a family member has both a Windows laptop and a MacBook needing attention, we can look at both at the same time.

MacBook Repairs — Genuine Parts, Transparent Pricing

We use high-quality replacement parts and always provide a quote before any work begins. Most screen, battery, and keyboard repairs are completed same-day or next-day, and every repair comes with a workmanship warranty so you can bring it back if anything isn't right. We're upfront if a repair isn't economical — we'd rather tell you honestly than charge for a fix that doesn't make financial sense.

Gaming PC Repairs

Our workshop isn't limited to Apple products — we build, upgrade, and repair custom gaming PCs across Wollongong and the Illawarra. From graphics card and power supply diagnostics to full custom builds, overheating fixes, and blue-screen troubleshooting, our technicians handle gaming rigs of every spec. If you're deciding between repairing an ageing gaming PC or building new, we'll give you honest advice rather than push an upsell.

Virus Removal & Malware Cleanup

A slow or misbehaving computer — Mac or Windows — is often a sign of malware, adware, or a browser hijack. We run full virus and malware removal, clean out unwanted startup programs, and restore your computer to a fast, secure state. We also advise on practical, ongoing protection so the problem doesn't come straight back.

Data Recovery

Lost photos, documents, or business files after a drive failure, accidental deletion, or a MacBook that won't boot? Our data recovery service works across MacBook hard drives and SSDs, Windows laptops, external drives, and USB storage. We assess recoverability first and only proceed once you know the likely outcome and cost — no guesswork, no surprise fees.

Business IT Support

Local Wollongong and Illawarra businesses rely on us for more than one-off repairs. We provide ongoing business IT support including hardware servicing, network troubleshooting, data backup setup, and fleet maintenance for offices running a mix of MacBooks and Windows machines. If downtime is costing you money, our in-store team can prioritise business repairs and keep your team working.
