Kai Harris

Julia Perna

Super courteous and helpful, definitely the best place to get fast and dependable service!!

Bronte McPhedran

I am seeing other posts about being careful if you're a women around this man. My experience was of being uncomfortable and I would not recommend him. Awful experience and did not get my laptop back for several months. Once I did get it back I had to return multiple times to get my laptop to work properly. Regret allowing him into my house. Very unprofessional.

Maryam Mohammad

The service was quick, professional, and extremely helpful. Unfortunately my mba was beyond repair, but my data was saved and recovered thanks to these guys.

Bill McKinnon

Mac Repair Man is the best around - no questions asked. Ahmad is a master of the craft and goes above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction and job completion. His prices are reasonable, and even if they weren't, I would still pay to employ such expertise. 5 stars all around.

Jeremy Hunter

My 2015 macbook pro's keyboard and trackpad weren't working, and when I took it to Apple they were going to charge me $400-500 for the part and labor. I looked online and found the part I needed ($9 off amazon with good reviews). I called in to see if he could install it, and he did the same day, in 5 mins. Saved me a lot of money. Good service, great price, very efficient and fast. Would recommend. Thanks again.

Jamie McCormick

Couldn't have been happier with the quality of the work or the service. Highly recommended for anyone dealing with Apple issues. Turnaround was amazing.

mineman4

We just had a great experience here. My daughter is ecstatic that her phone works again! the customer service was awesome ????

Grace Geng

Really friendly and knows what he's doing! Definitely recommend, he got my Mac fixed the same day.

Preston Stringer

Dan Manherz

I have used Mac Repair Man several times for repairs of my macbook. Service has always been very fast, no waiting and prices very reasonable. I highly recommend him.

ezgi

Amazing service. I needed an emergency repair and he opened up the store for me on a Saturday night when it’s normally supposed to be closed. He makes sure the customer leaves feeling happy with the service they received. I felt very cared for in a time that I was feeling really stressed and upset. Thank you so much!

Dan Weber

Wow. These guys are amazing. Their service is incredible. I phoned them to get my wifi fixed and ideally needed my computer the next day. They said usually it's 4-5 days, but they'll do what they can. They were able to fix it in and get it done within 30 min! Amazing. They are down to earth, genuinely great guys and put their clients first. Highly recommend them!

Rob Currie

What amazing service. I needed my main edit suite computer turned around quickly and Ahmed was able to deal with the problem on a very thin high end iMac that had to be dissembled and within hours and I was up and running again the same day. Price was right and what an experience. I've never seen so many macs in one place before. This guy really does strive for great great service.

Jason Jakel

David Brown

I was in need of a full OS install and Ahmed was able diagnoses and complete this task in 30mins. His is extremely honest and quick to repair in front of your eyes. He is a straight shooter with no BS. I will be back for any other mac issues.

Hans Mcleod

The tried to sell me a crappy , claiming it is in excellent shape.

Taylar Graves

I was devastated when my MacBook Air screen started to malfunction, especially so close to an important deadline that I have coming up. I had reached out to Apple and Best Buy and was quoted outrageous prices that made purchasing a new computer seem like the only option. I decided to take a chance and drop by Mac Repair Man's shop to see if there was anything he could do for me. Less than 30 minutes later I was leaving his shop with a repaired computer, for a fraction of the price and with a matched warranty. The service was quick, friendly, and professional. I felt comfortable as he walked me through the options and process, and welcomed my questions. This type of service and appreciation for customers is hard to come by. I will definitely be returning for my MacBook needs and will be sure to recommend him to anyone with Apple issues. Thanks again!

Paisley

Absolute 5-star customer service. Friendly people, fair pricing and a welcoming environment. Above & beyond- trust this place with your tech!

Rextool Abrasives

He has quite good skills with very detail. He is honest.

Victoria Bertini

Literally a life saver. Mac store offered only negative sentiment and no actual help, telling me to purchase a new computer. Mac repair man fixed in it a day... A day! It also ended up costing half of the price of what the apple alternative would have. BOTTOM LINE: This guy is incredible.

Michelle Dittrich

Recieved a friendly greeting right away but expect to wait a bit with their walk in service as they are busy. My mac concern was quickly diagnosed and explained to me honestly with no extra sales pitches. They went above and beyond my initial repair concern with software advice and installs. Very happy with my service. Thanks!

J Carnahan

Jerin John

Brittany Arbutina

Brought my macbook in this afternoon, and had it completely fixed and operating as new by the evening. Was very pleased with the amazing customer service, and the professional attitude. I would definitely recommend Mac Repair Man to anyone. Great service, great rates. :)

Nolan Wehrlz

Mac Repair Man is a genius! Fixed my MacBook air quickly and inexpensively. I will never go anywhere else.

JC Audio Services

These guys are true professionals. I have been head technician in a professional theatre for 13 years and these guys are the source for anything Apple.

Kirill Kucherenko

Very helpful, always ready to resolve any future issues. Never backs away from a problem.

Andy Naudi

Melissa Pyne

I spilt a cup of tea on my 4 month old Mac book and everyone knows that water is the kiss of death to any apple product. But not when you bring it to Mac Repair Man! Within 24 hours, I got my dry computer back without losing any of my information! I'm keeping his card handy...and all liquids away from my computer. Thanks again!

Al van der Laan

The right place, with the right people and fair pricing for buying a Mac or repairing your Mac. They do logic board repairs here!!

Chase C

Quick fix for my mac ... Much cheaper than other places

Jodi Purdie

If there is one word I would use to describe him, it would be integrity. He put our best interests first, and was honest with us. Never pushy and never unfair with his pricing. Would highly recommend, and have several times with my colleagues and friends

Tanya MacIntyre

Great diagnostic and repair service. Thanks so much, Ahmad, for working part of a holiday to get my MAC upgraded. I am grateful ????

Rattana

I brought my 2015 MacBook Pro in because I had a dim screen, it took a little over a month to get my MacBook back but it was worth it, any problems I had Mac Repairman would fix it. I would definitely recommend this place to get your iMac or MacBook repaired.

Kal Zeitoun

Amazing service.... amazing place. He's a pro and I would go back in a heart beat. !!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much keep it up

Craig Tomlin

My 27" iMac 2009 hard drive was almost dead, and wouldn't boot. I brought it into Mac Repair Man and they recovered ALL our data files - Photos, iTunes Library nearly 750GB. They recommended a new SSD to replace the old dead hard drive and we are extremely happy with the outcome. Jason at Mac Repair man was very knowledgable and helpful. I highly recommend them for Apple Mac issues and repairs. Thanks!

Shefaza Esmail

I was surprised by the quick turnover on the repair! Expect to wait a little as a walk-in initially because of how busy the place is, but Ahmed seemed really good at multitasking and prioritizing to address every person's concern. I had brought two laptops to him - one had liquid damage on the keyboard, which he fixed in a day, and the other had a ram issue and was in need of an upgrade, which he also completed quicker than I had expected. I would recommend anyone going to be clear about their expectations for what they want fixed for a more accurate price range. Prices are overall affordable :)

Tim Moher

Did An EXCELLENT JOB

Mike Fitzgerald

Macbook charger broke, the guys did a quick diagnostic to see if it was repairable, it was not unfortunately but they were able to hook me up with a new charger for much less $$ than apple store would have wanted

Ralph Hou

Untrustworthy, said he would completely fix my computer but he only fixed half and left the screen with water damage.

Ivan Chen

I went in today with a minor issue regarding my Macbook Pro, and received professional advice on whether or not I should get the problem fixed. I was kindly and honestly told it would be too expensive and definitely not worth the price, so I did not proceed with it. The customer service was great, and definitely cared about customer satisfaction over profits. Was very honest regarding prices, repair time, and what the repair might have required.

Brendan Ireton-Paul

Mac Repair Man did such an incredible and thorough job fixing my computer that now it's faster and better than when it was new. Every single detail was addressed, solved and then improved really fast. Personally I think he knows Apple computers better than Apple itself does! (No offence, Apple.) I'll always turn to this guy for all my Apple product needs in the future. Aside from going above and beyond to fix my computer he's also really friendly and personable. He's a great guy, give him your business!

Claircreek PWDs Donna Gottdenker

Very nice guy with personal service. Best Mac repair in area

David Ryan

Kelly Johnson

Fast, efficient service at a great price. The guys went above and beyond for me, and serviced several other happy customers in the short time I was there. Highly recommend for all Apple repairs. These guys know their stuff!

Andrea Nelson

Ahmed is awesome and super helpful. He fixed my computer and did some upgrades within a day (I thought it might take a few days, but nah, he got the job done super fast). Plus, my lap top is working better and faster than it has in years (e.g. it's turning on /restarting within 30 seconds, plus however long it takes to login, versus having to wait for upwards of 10-15 minutes for everything to get going), and some of the programs that were becoming a massive hassle (e.g. InDesign, even my damn calendar) are moving super fast now. Definitely super happy and would totally send anyone his way who has Mac issues :)

Something Strange

I brought my Mac in specifically to retrieve data which I told him when I went in but he was more interested in hitting on me and making me uncomfortable. He told me he was going to update me and call me within the week but never did I had to call him 2 times. He had my computer for 16 days to charge me 90 dollars to tell me what Apple had already told me. He retrieved nothing and fixed nothing. He’s super sketchy and extremely unprofessional. Don’t waste you time and money like I did.

Thomas Radman

They know their Macs! Quickly troubleshooting my problem and getting it working again.

Quinn

Really helpful and genuinely kind guys, as well as good prices.

Dee Timberwolf

I have a 2009 Macbook Pro and it recently had some issues with the battery and the trackpad. It was quickly becoming a block of useless junk, and so I had to call around to see who could help me - and quick. The Mac store at the mall was helpful in that they referred me to the other Mac store in Guelph, and, after a bit of run around on the phone, they ended up telling me about this policy where they couldn't really give me any info on how long anything would take or how much anything would cost. I simply had to leave my computer with them, and then, at some point in the future - surprise! You owe this much. The bottom line was that Mac couldn't just let me order the battery I needed and then come in and pay for it. I had to comply with a mandate of theirs which even they know makes no sense. Anyway, I decided to look around some more. The Mac Repair Man helped me out, and I even ended up with a better computer in the end because I just went in and talked to him and he fixed all my problems as fast as could reasonably be expected and was able to put in a new drive that has sped up my sluggish machine - he offered because he saw what I was using, and I took it because it was a good deal. Very approachable, and obviously neck-deep in Macs that needed repairing, it was cool to be able to get in there and sort things out so quickly. Totally recommend the guy, and I know who I'll be pestering in the future if I need my Mac fixed.

Joseph Goodwin

Great and affordable service from someone who cares.

Robert Riachi

Came 30minutes before closing, he diagnosed the keyboard problem immediately and offered me a $50 fix for a 350$ problem, offered me good food and a great guy all around. Stayed after closing till 5:30pm to even finish the job on the spot. If I could give this guy more than 5 stars I would.

Luckdoggz

This guy will do anything to help. Very honest good guy

Nick

I dropped off my laptop. The "mac man" was not even there. I reluctantly left it with some straggler. I then received a phone call later the next evening from the mac man. He was very unprofessional. He proceeded to work some script about how great he is at what he does. He then began to fish- asking what it is that I did for a living, I immediately could tell he was trying to determine how much money he should attempt to con me out of. He then gave me a bizarre 3-tier quote for the repair of which I could choose. I explained it was alot of money even the most modestly quoted cost- he then changed his approach and tried to sell me an I-Mac instead. After talking he thankfully agreed to repair it for the least money. When I picked up the computer and paid he leaned over and whispered- after its gone its not my problem- or something to that affect. Stay away from this dude and just bite the bullet and get your device repaired by an accredited and trusted technician.

Chrissy Newton (BeingChrissyNewton)

The best advice and service I've had in years! This man knows what he's doing. I'll refer him and his team anytime. :))

Sid Renwada

Amazing services, fast speed and cost less than half of any of their competitors. Can't say enough good stuff about these guys.

aleeza muskat

The best experience of my life. After leaving apple being told my computer was broken and would be over $700 to fix, Ahmad fixed it for an extremely reasonable price is just 5 minutes. He explains what he is doing, cares about what he is doing, and is genuinely trying to help and fix whatever problem presented to him. Will only be recommending him in the future and will only be coming here starting now!

Jenna van Klaveren

faki musa

My room mate's computers been sitting there for 3 months

Sizzurp R

Arrogant repairman. Needs to work on his customer service. Cost is better compared to Apple, although he ended up charging me more than original quote and with a partial fix. He does not listen: had my Macbook held up for 2 months, claiming he couldn’t figure out what to do, even though I had told him what the issue was in the beginning. No people skills. Does not ever respond to texts, as rare as they may be, requesting for eta. Had to visit in person to get update on if I will ever get my laptop back. MOST, IF NOT ALL THE 5 STAR REVIEWS ARE OBVIOUSLY ALL FAKE. SMH.

Myles Walters

Always able to help me out with all my Mac issues. Definitely better then the Mac stores. Very friendly and knows what he's doing. If you have any Mac related questions concerns or just in the market for a new/used Mac this guy will help you out.

Bill Strachan

Good service

Osteoandi

I called him in panic mode because I was having issues with my mac. He came in late, helped me out that day. I really appreciated the urgency and within two hours my laptop and I were back home! Thank you!

Ash Sharma

Awesome owner and awesome services!

Eric Repke

I brought my MacBook Pro in the other day because of an issue regarding the screen not turning on. They solved the issue and fixed it within about an hour, on the spot. Not to mention they charged me a VERY reasonable amount for the work involved. The staff were super friendly, and very accommodating! I would highly recommend anyone with issues regarding Apple products, whether software or hardware problems, to definitely visit the Mac Repair Man! You will not be disappointed :) Thanks again Mac Repair Man !!!

Angelina Nguyen

Very very friendly and great customer service! I was able to have a fun conversation with the owner while he worked on fixing my Mac. The owner fixed my Mac book Pro within an hour and everything’s looks completely brand new. I would definitely recommend others to come here and get their electronics fixed.

Shane ODonnell

Fast worker, effective communicator, solid work all at the right price. You can't find better service than this.

Vishnu Shanker Anujith

Not good but ok. I live in Kitchener

Jason Paul

Honest and professional service

Bill McBay

What a great find for me. I was ready to call it quits on my iMac that I love but it just wasn’t working the way it should. I went there with my Son who had some issues with his iMac as well. We were ready to take the two and make one big nice one and then go spend thousands to get me a new one. Ahmet took the time to explain in terms we could understand why that might not be in our best interest. Made perfect sense, but only after he took that time to explain. Ahmet makes it very clear that his goal is help people and that using his gift of Mac repairs is the way he will do it. If you walked by the front of the shop, you would more than likely keep walking. But behind that door is where the magic happens. Thanks again Ahmet for your help, honesty and care while working with us. I will spread the word. Best kept secret.

Jason White

Expert advice and service, a third of the price quoted to me by Best Buy, and they're friendly and likeable to boot. The store was full of sport equipment, of all things, because - wait for it - they're helping to raise money for a charity. These guys are class acts and every bit of advice I was given about my macbook was backed up by my mac expert friends. I immediately trust them. Plus, it's a small business...why go to a big chain when you can support the little guy who's doing a better job?

Santiago Lopez

This place sucks , the owner is very much a liar and will try to scam you. He is also very unprofessional and will make you feel extremely uncomfortable if you're a girl. (he did it to my girl) STAY AWAY

Jayne Bartels

I visited the shop today after dropping my macbook last night. I was worried that I wouldn’t have it in working condition for my finals coming up but Ahmed replaced my battery in an hour! I recommend his shop to anyone who needs repairs on their apple devices. Better than the Apple store itself! Thanks for the great service!

Mike North

Very fast and efficient service, will work with you in order to make you happy. I dropped my mac off to replace a battery with a specific budget in mind, after finding out that the laptop needed more work than previously expected, Mac Repair Man went above and beyond by doing the extra work required in order to get my macbook up and running WHILE still keeping their promise about the initial budget discussed. Mac Repair Man's main priority is earning customer trust and maintaining a solid reputation. Would definitely recommend to anyone who needs any Apple products fixed.

Craig B

My daughter took her Mac to this place. Repairs were made and the machine did work. Charges were excessive as parts that did not need replacing were replaced and some parts were installed were not made for the model she has....forced in. I would not trust this place ever again. Get another quote before giving this place your business.

simone clarke

I've had my mac repaired a couple times here and both times were great experiences. Much better price and faster than the apple store. He goes above and beyond!

Jerome Alve

Ahmed is a life saver!! I needed to get my cracked macbook screen fixed and he did it in 30 minutes for such a good price! I really recommend him to anybody who needs their mac fixed. Great service! Not worth going to the apple store, and having to pay much more and wait longer.

Jeremy Lara

The people here were extremely helpful. My computer repair took longer than expected to fix (nobody’s fault, just severe computer problems) and they stayed persistent to fix our issues and make sure we were satisfied. This place cares deeply about people and relationships as well as provide excellent service that comes at a great price. I couldn’t be more happy with their work. Will definitely recommend to anyone with Mac issues.

Jennifer Hall

SoCold Restaurant Supply

Brought the impossible repair and they got the job done on time and on budget ...Thanks guys!!

Matthew Morales

I went in because Coffee had leaked into my Macbook Pro. I dropped off my computer on Friday September 29, and received it back Saturday October 14. Summary on the bottom of the post. Initially, I was told they would try an initial bath and if that didn't work, we would have to explore more options. It took them until Oct 5th to give me call and present me with options. They gave me a lower priced option ($300-400) and a higher one ($650, which they told me included not a sole repair, but a replacement of parts. I was even promised that the missing laptop leg would be replaced). After giving them the OK on the higher option, they told me they may be able to get it to me at the end of Oct 6th. I went in Oct 10th to pick-up my laptop and check-in. When I turned on my computer, it was working 10x slower than normal– it functioned as well as it did prior to dropping it off with them. During that time I was in the store, both employees confidently diagnosed the problem was due to the harddrive and they recommended to me multiple times to upgrade it. As I continued to question them about it, they looked into my computer and it became obvious that they didn't work on it since the last time we spoke. The outer leg was still missing, parts still needed replacing and they needed more time. They asked me for time until the end of the day. I called in Wed Oct 11th, and they still needed more time. I called in Fri Oct 13th, and they still needed more time. When I finally went to get my laptop on Sat Oct 14, he told me the harddrive was working fine. I talked to him about the $650 price, and he removed the $50 warranty with them that was included in the price– I wasn't even aware that I was purchasing the warranty... SUMMARY: – 2 stars because although my computer is back to normal, the price and service disappointed me. – I'm surprised by the positive reviews. I was continually promised different things at different times, and given a misdiagnosis and unnecessary recommendation when I went to pick up my laptop. They did replace my little laptop leg in the end. – I wasn't provided with an itemized list of what needed to be replaced. If they had been more transparent with the time they needed and didn't make promises they couldn't keep, this wouldn't be a big issue. But they lost my trust, and I won't be going back.

Estelle Lebowitz

I went to the apple store to get my macbook pro checked out and it turned out I needed a new battery, top case, and screen. I was under apple care so I wasn't too worried so I left and scheduled a day where I could drop off my computer. I was going to drop my macbook back off at the store when I had a server spill a whole cup of coffee on it in a cafe while I was working. Obviously, if there's any water damage, Apple care becomes void so I was panicked. I did what I could to dry and air out the poor thing. Next morning I took it to the team at Mac Repair Man and had it fixed and ready on the same day. I'm not sure what he did but when I took it to the apple store, no questions asked they fixed EVERYTHING and didn't see an ounce of water damage. I can't thank you enough for the work you did. Kindest and most speedy service I've received in a long time.

Pat Parisi

Ahmad called me right away to help me with my iMac problems. He did the repairs the same day and for a very reasonable price. He impressed me with his kindness, trust, friendliness and keeping to his word (honesty). Very convenient location as his shop is located close to where I live.

Samuel Taylor

Great job fixing my old macbook. The guys are really nice and the turnaround time was fantastic. Pricing was really reasonable as well. Ill be recommending these guys to a lot of friends.

Zenga

They are very knowledgeable and trustworthy! Will diagnose the problem and offer the best solutions at a very fair price! I will always go see them if I’m having problems with my Mac, If you want people to who will do honest work at a fair price and NOT take advantage of you, then they are the people to go see!!

Jim Beretta

Mac Repair Man had me up and running fast. They did a great job, fair price and very convenient in-home repair service. My Mac is running better than ever.

Nikki Budwal

super happy with my service! I was afraid my Mac was gone for good but Ahmed brought it back to life at a fair price too! Thankyou so much!

Joshua Liu

Guy was a joy to work with. Really positive personality and gave a reasonable price. Definitely go to this man for any Macbook related issues.

Craig S

Called on Monday afternoon and had a quick chat about some of the issues my machine was having (it was barely usable). Went in on the Tuesday morning, and the Mac was fixed right in front of me, with everything explained - no funny business, no up-sells. I walked out 10 minutes later with a machine that worked better than new, and a bill that was less than half what I thought it would be. I don’t often take the time to leave a review, good or bad, but the service received here requires praise. Thanks!

Tony R Wagstaff

Excellent !!

daniel Tuka

Lukasz Kabata

My Imac was not working for 2 years , I dropped off my Imac in the morning Ahmed said I can have my hard drive upgraded in 15 minutes in the afternoon the same day to whatever my reasonable budget was for him. I had a conversation with him and he has had a passion for repairs since he was 13 years old and is also well educated! If you have a problem with your Apple computer I would suggest to bring here ! 10/10 service , thank you Ahmed!

Sreekar Tripuranthakam

So far, my experience with Macbook Repair Man has been great! They replaced my battery and fixed some logic board water damage. Received the laptop quickly and for a great price. There was a small tweak needed, so I dropped it back off and Ahmed took care of it right away. If ever I need any fixing, I'll be bringing my stuff here! Thank you!!

Krysten Hagedorn

Mac Repair Man is great. Got the job done more quickly than I anticipated, and for a reasonable price. Buddy even stayed past closing hours so I didn't have to be without my laptop for a night. Would recommend for sure!!

Ashish Chowdary

Alex Smyth

Alexandra Motts

holy cow! locked out of my mac with a black screen.. nothing I did worked to reset it. He fixed it in about 1 minute and did not charge me. I will be back and recommend all my friends as well. So awesome!

Brandon McBay

Great experience with Ahmet from Mac Repair Man. I am picking my computer up tomorrow but have no doubt that he will be able to complete the job. I have had a repair and ram upgrade. He is extremely knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable leaving my computer in his hands. Highly recommend his services.

Fraser Vrenjak

Will take any of my mac productive back when necessary. Timely and professional. Excellent work to accommodate my schedule. Thanks!

Michelle Sin

Ahmad fixed my MacBook Air in 10 minutes at a very affordable rate. He even cleaned my phone and gave it a network update free of charge. I definitely recommend Mac Repair Man for any computer issues you have.

Peter Maloney

Great experience! Recovered all my files off my dead macbook and transferred them all onto my new one. 100% would recommend.

Syd Salmon

Outstanding customer service. They did whatever it took to get me up and running. They were proactive is describing the process that they would take and explained everything. I can't say enough good things about the service. And the best part is that their prices are fair and reasonable.

Justin Chan

Very quick service and fair pricing. Seems like a genuine and trustworthy guy.

Martin Luo

Had a great experience with the owner. He provided fast service (within 30mins) and gave me a great price on a trackpad cable replacement. I would highly recommend if you need service/repairs on your macbook.

Rishab Thapar

Extremely fast turnaround for battery replacement (under 2 hours). Friendly staff

Gabrielle Gigone

Amazing repair on my macbook, super fast and gave me a way better price than apple. will be coming back!

Tyson.V

Lionelle Richee

You have to be fully detailed when describing what's wrong with your Mac, and they don't disclose all information clearly after they run diagnostics.

Yasmeen Eloueitti (yaselo)

Where do I start. Ahmad truly saved the day for me and I must say I have never met a more genuine, hardworking, truthful and straight up guy before. Especially for someone like myself who knows absolutely nothing about computers or technical things, anyone else would and could have easily ripped me off. The screen of my dinosaur old Macbook decided to stop working and I thought it was truly the end. When calling around Kitchener- Waterloo for quotes, Ahmad promised he'd find a solution with the best possible price. He sure held up his promise. He diagnosed my Macbook (free of charge) and was able to completely repair my computer on a last minute bases, on the same day. He was extremely clear and quick with his communication and responses, answered all my questions, making me feel confident and comfortable trusting him with my 10 year old Mac and overall was very caring, kind and extremely generous. This guy actually cares about the quality of his work and helping people, he's not just in it for the money. I'm so grateful for him and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone! You will not be disappointed and will not find a better deal!!!!

Pam Dickinson

Mac Repair guys did a great job repairing my Macbook Pro. They diagnosed the problem quickly and had it fixed with a quick turn around. Price was reasonable considering I had liquid damage from six months prior and I should have brought it to them sooner.

Subramanyam Sridhar Mokkapati

Robert Metras

Very knowledgeable and kind. Rapid fix for my Imac issues. Fair pricing

Joseph Alonzi

Amazing service! Could not recommend enough. After not being able to successfully install a new iMac unibody 5K retina display myself, the Mac Repair Man was there a and had all the solutions. Needed to fix a bunch of motherboard issues at the microscopic level and he delivered just that. A large job handled and I had a working iMac in half a day. He even worked late to get it done (8pm) so I could have it ready by 9am the next day. That was important to me as it was a company machine and work needed to be done! You have all future company computer repairs moving forward.

Jim Truswell

Kartikeya Bhardwaj

Friendly person and same day repair...nice deal!

Peter Sin-Keo

Amazing guy, who delivers on providing quality service at a fair price. Will recommend family and friends to him because he'll find one way or another to get the job done. He really cares for his customers and values building a strong relationship with them.

Carl M

Kevin Shi

Had complications with an iPhone screen repair, but he fixed it on the spot!

Anthony Ong

Ahmed is an amazing guy and I mean every word of that. He definitely values quality service. He completely walks you through the solution to any problem you bring to him. Believe me when I say that your Mac is in great hands when you bring it here.

Benjamin Rollo

My hard drive crashed and Ahmed successfully recovered all of my data and installed it onto a new SSD drive. I was so happy and relieved. Wonderful service and a very friendly great guy! Would highly recommend. Thanks Ahmed!

Aimie B

Helpful and honest service

Nick Abernethy

Went above and beyond to fix my old Mac book pro. Looking forward to work with them again on various other upgrades.

Amy Huet

Knows what he's doing, is professional and is very honest. Thank you!

Flower P

Fast and great service. Got my computer fixed and ready to go in less than an hour for a great price.

GingerLeah1 Schmid

Great service

Jordan Chan

Best service possible. I brought in a mac with water damage in several places. Apple told me repair would be more expensive than getting a new computer. This guy stayed late to make sure he could fix it for me same day, explained to me everything that was wrong (there were lots of damaged spots that apple missed) and told me how and why he's able to do it for a fraction of the price. He knows these products better than anyone, and he cares so much about his customers that he won't rip them off like other places. On a side note: He is awesome to talk to. Really cool guy.

Kevin Oerton

Called at 7pm on Friday night and they completed an emergency repair on my iMac that was completed by 90 minutes later. Awesome service!

Greg Lehman (TuxedoMutt)

Wow! Couldn't be happier. Before I went in, I assumed that my computer would need to replaced because it was slow and older. The team assured me it was easily upgradeable. For $350 I have a MacBook that runs as good as new. I cannot believe how fast it is. Very happy!

the sweaty pro

Fantastic fast service. Ahmed is the best!!! ????????

Ann Mansour

Olive did an amazing job educating me on what laptop would work best with what I was looking to do, he was very attentive and knowledgeable. You truly feel like he has your best interest in mind, I would absolutely recommend anyone looking to buy or have a MacBook repaired stop by his shop.

Richard Louis

These guys are running a scam and should be reported to the Better Business Bureau.

nolan marshall

Excellent service, wonderful laughs, and an amazing company overall. Highly recommend for any mac repair/ upgrade service. Side-note... If you're thinking of purchasing a Mac, check in with their team. They can offer some of the most bang for buck deals in the region.

Alicia Hovy

Extraordinary service!! Highly recommended for all Mac needs!!

Mozzie KitKat

I took in my older iMac to add Ram. I ended up updating the Mother Board and some Ram and the computer flies now - no more sluggish Mac. I was impressed with the customer service, so professional and friendly and you can't beat the prices. Nothing like the cold, pick a number and wait an hour service like at an Apple Store. I would highly recommend Mac Repairs to my friends and family.

First, as some else has already said I have also seen reviews on yelp left by Ahmad himself, his friend, and his employees. So question the integrity of any exemplary google reviews. I got my laptop fixed by Mac repair man 9 DAYS LATER the screen cracked even though I was so cautious which made suspicious so I contacted Ahmad first asking for the warranty info he’s like apple warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage & I pleaded my case he said he would contact the manufacturer. Since he was taking too long and being sus with giving information over. I went to Apple & got it serviced checked turned out he charged me $630 to put a screen that should’ve been recycled on my laptop. Told me it was brand new & apple warranty covered. In the end I got my money back thank god! He said basically I’m lucky he’s giving me a refund because the screen is cracked. But if it wasn’t for the screen cracking I wouldn’t have know that he used recycled screen and charged me $630 for it. Pictures: Non Physical Proof: I attached the serial code of where repair technician searched it up and found that it was a used part. Remind you Ahmad is not an Authorized Apple service. Apple holds a tight reign on its parts. They don’t sell to independents, they only supply parts to their authorized service providers and their own Apple Stores. User: Oldscreen goat previous review showed a poor quality retina screen. As well BBB review with the complaint type being Guaranteed/Warranty. Physical Proof: Scratches on the screen, Dent on the MacBook Cover, The lining of the display looking worn. I only had this laptop display for 9 days. The computer screen had a screen protector on the whole time and when I took it off I noticed the scratches. Warranty Any service repairs Ahmad do not have Apple warranty! Apple doesn’t warrant third party repairs. only apple stores and apple authorised service providers can honour the warranty. Overall, many customers have been satisfied with his work I can’t so myself keep in mind this is only in regards to MacBook screen repair. In the end I used the refund I got & brought it to an actual apple service place & paid $790.

Great service. Gives best advice even when it's against his financial interest -- was blown away by that

Chuck Oz

Best place for Mac repair. Premium service at a reasonable price.

Jonathan Balt

They know their stuff and its almost always same day turnaround. Also great source for gently used or refurbished computers depending on what they have. Service is great

Andrea Warnick Consulting

This place was fabulous. Had my Mac fixed and working like new within minutes. I'll definitely be coming back.

Joseph Brannan

Great service, and quick repairs! Thanks for being a simple and straightforward option for fixing what seemed like a very costly repair!

Alex Pavlov

Really good experience. The owner knows a lot about fixing Apple computers and is the best around. Had my computer fixed within a few days after I thought I was going to have to buy a new one. 10/10

Lyric Woods

Amazing service, I know nothing about computers and he helped me more than I could have imagined. Very honest and upfront. Would highly recommend.

Christopher Pashartis

Laptop had some unorthodox issues that they couldn't solve. Wen't back multiple times, though nice, they still couldn't resolve the issues. Costed too much for what they did in my opinion, considering it wasn't solved.

Cara Chapman

Ahmed had the inconvenient task of repairing my laptop right at the beginning of all the Covid closures in March. Even with all the difficulties waiting for parts to arrive (and my computer then rejecting its new part) he was so gracious during the process. He kindly lent me a loaner for a whole month! He also included some upgrades at no extra charge to make up for the wait, so now my laptop is even stronger than before. Excellent customer service during unfortunate circumstances.

Joshua Ivan Bonilla

Ahmed is a good guy and is an expert at his craft. 100% recommend his services.

Matthew K

Great experience and fast service. I was very impressed with how quickly they replaced my MacBook Air battery.

Danial Farooq

Christina Benjamins

Fabulous, fast, friendly service. Both my Macs are running much better and for a much better price than I anticipated.

Lisa Falusi

I had the best experience here. I was provided outstanding service in a professional manner. I truly appreciate the ‘going beyond ‘ what is required and genuine care.

Uground Mala

If I could give 0 stars I would. The owner of the store who was there “assisting” me was horrible. To start off he made me feel stupid for asking questions, was not helpful and was entitled. He also changed the price on me. I was told one price over the phone when my computer was ready for pick up. Once I got to the store he changed and raised the price on me. The only helpful person in the store was the younger employee. Please save yourself the hassle and look somewhere else.

selamina kahsay

Good experience helpful

Daniel Mutton

Daniel McCreesh

Excellent Knowledge of Apple Mac products, can handle the most challenging repair problems. Responsive Professional service and reasonable price. Strongly recommend

Paul Zimic

True story. I went to see these guys to grab a used MacBook Pro. They didn't have what I needed and instead suggested that I go to Kijiji and find a clean used machine. Then they suggested that the seller meet me at the Mac Repair Man store and they would evaluate the machine on the spot and suggest a fair price for both of us. That's exactly what happened. I got a great laptop and the guys at Mac Repair Man offered their time at no charge. This created a great deal of valuable goodwill. Customer for life. Whoop Whoop!

Ronghao Yang

Really helpful

Ryan W. Oh

Super, super friendly guys. Very, very quick service. I was looking to get repair for my Macbook that had water damage. It took the Apple Store 2 days just to evaluate my Macbook, only to tell me the repairs would cost more than a new one. I brought the same Macbook to these guys. They opened my Macbook right away, briefly showed me some of the stuff that was wrong with my Macbook, took a closer look at it over the day and got back to me with their full analysis within 24 hours. I even saw some guy walk in with his broken iPhone, get it repaired, and walk out with his fixed iPhone within 20 minutes! They always ask customers when they need their stuff back by, and they work hard to get it back to you by that time. In the end, my Macbook needed too many repairs to get it fixed, but they offered a trade-in and gave me a good deal on a refurbished laptop. Definitely recommend these guys.

Imroxeie

Brought my laptop in for a pretty significant repair a little over a month ago, and have had no problems with it ever since. I've loved my Mac Pro since the day I bought it 8 years ago. I was afraid I'd have to replace it with another computer once it started slowing down and keyboard/screen weren't functioning properly, but this place helped restore it back to life, all the while saving me money on not buying a new laptop altogether. I'm really happy with how it's now functioning.

If you have issues with your mac products this is the place to be⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Mohammed Salah

My MacBook screen was cracked, when I took it to apple they charged me over half the price of the laptop to fix it, with a 2-3 day wait period for the repairs to be done. I found this place on google and decided to call and get a quote for the price. Ahmed offered me a price much lower than the one apple gave me.I went there shortly after and got my screen fixed in half an hour. Ahmed checked the health of my laptop battery as well as offered to change some settings that annoyed me in the laptop. I would definitely recommend going to this store for your mac needs, you will get a reasonable price and quick repairs.

Simran Parmar

This man is a Mac God. Fixed my mac on the spot. Did everything in front of me and showed me the issues. He even went above and beyond and fixed other issues for free and showed me how to increase the life of my mac. Great guy, good service. I will continue to come back to him if anything else were to ever go bad - which I doubt since it seems like he took care of everything. Not to mention he does not charge much for his service.

Roy Cleeves

Ahmed knows Apple Macs! I dropped off my desktop unit and told Ahmed that there is no rush. I didn't have an appointment. He called me the next day to advise that the fix is a faster hard drive since I have so much on this mac. And this new hard drive will be faster than when the machine was new. I said - go ahead! The next day I dropped by to pick it up. It was done! And it was lightening fast. And Ahmed also showed me how to remove some files that were no longer needed on the hard drive from my data transfer. He also gave me my old hard drive as a back up from that day to keep. Thanks Ahmed - you are a star - 5 of them!

Minah Kim

Super nice and friendly. My laptop broke suddenly and i told him i needed my laptop fixed ASAP since i had assignments due. He had it fixed the same day and even fixed other problems relating to my laptop. Would recommend :)

Dave Saldana

I rarely review businesses, but my experience with Mac Repair Man was so good, I have to get the word out. The job was done in less than two hours, and done very well. The fee was very reasonable, and a few perks were added in for free. Also, all of my options for maximizing the computer's performance were presented to me, and he offered to do them at a steep discount as a package deal with the repair he'd already done. I hope I don't have any problems with my Mac computers, but if I do, I know I'll be taking them to Mac Repair Man.

Ali Saeed

Had a great experience. Within minutes of arrival, Ahmed opened my laptop and right away told me the diagnosis. The price he quoted was a couple hundred dollars cheaper than what it would cost elsewhere to fix. He told me he was busy so I would have to wait, but still had it ready within 10 days. When I went to pick it up, he spent a good 15-20min on helping me with the password and signing in.

Shawn MacFarlane

2nd time in, same as the first. Told me what was wrong, why and how much to fix. He recommended thou to call Apple direct since there was recall for my service issue. Called Apple and sure enough problem solved. Thanxs buddy.

Morgan Wase

Mac Repair Man is the only location I’ll be taking my macs from now on. Outstanding service, fair prices, and knowledgeable staff. I brought my late 2011 iMac in at 4:30pm. Not only did Ahmed go the extra mile to explain what he was doing but he worked late to install a new solid state hard drive and gpu for me that day. If you’re looking for someone who knows their stuff, cares about their customers and goes the extra mile, Mac Repair Man is the only place in kw.

Horst Prelog

5 Stars all the way!!! - great service and reasonable priced repair - highly recommended!

Michael Sendrea

Professional, courteous and knowledgeable. Fixed a small problem with my Mac that had completely stumped me in a few minutes. Do yourself a favour and take your Mac in to this guy before you wreck something. :)

Recovered everything on my hardrive faster and cheaper than anyone else would have! Thankful for the friendly, same day service!

Takes all the stress out of Mac repairs. Detailed, thoughtful, and fair. Search for a repair man is over.

Santiago Romero

Computer fixed promptly and late at night started crashing for whatever reason. Ahmed stayed up all night and via FT helped me fixed it. Great service. Excellent support!! Thanks

Emma Bergeron

In short, my laptop was taken care of in the quickest time possible, at the best price possible and with the friendliest service I've ever experienced. As for the long account of my experience, as a graduate student I have little money and a heavy reliance on my laptop given all of my work depends on it. As such, I was given all my options whether to repair what was broken, buy used replacement parts, or buy new parts, or buy a new laptop, etc. The owner answered all of my calls, even though most were outside of normal business hours and even began repair outside of normal business hours. I could not have asked for a better experience and I fully intend to bring all future business to this guy. If you're like me and hate the apple store because their solution is always to buy a brand new part that costs as much as the laptop or a new laptop altogether then this guy is definitely the place to bring your laptop. He also provides a long warranty for his services because he is confident in his work and he truly wants you to get what you've paid for! I will say I look forward to doing business with him again but I will add that I hope it's not because I broke my laptop ... again :-)

D. Michael Hostetler

The service was exceptional with a fast turn around time. I would not hesitate to recommend Mac Repair Man to anyone in need of Mac help!

Chris Triantafilou

Came in with what I thought was a serious problem with my iMac and walked out with the problem solved quick and easy! Very straight up guy who calls it like he sees it. Thanks again for your help!

VanderAa Discovers Ontario

Fantastic work. I recommend him to everyone with apple problems. Every time I have needed work on my Mac he’s gone far and beyond for me. I originally bought my MacBook in 2011/2012 and he has helped me keep every file alive since. I have over worked my Mac since I got it as I’m gamer and serious photographer. I just brought it in for another fix and I’m super excited to see what he has done to fix it this time. He’s always ready to do what he can to help you out and fix your computer with out losing anything just be real. Always the best service. I always feel my Mac is in trusted hands when I go

Brian Coyne

Apple store wanted $500 for a keyboard and mouse fix. Took it to the Mac Repair Man and was fixed within 20 mins. For much cheaper!! I recommend the Mac Man to anyone with mac problems.

samantha alkins

The screen on my MacBook died, mac repair man completely replaced it, while lending me a loner computer to use in the meantime. When I got my computer back it was perfectly fixed with a protective case put on. Great service, only complaint would have to be that the screen took a while to be delivered for repair, which was out of his control. Overall very happy with the service, would definitely recommend

Ella McMac

Alicia Tank

Great customer service! Was very well priced and was able to repair my device in a short amount of time! Would highly recommend!!

Felicia Manocchio

Best mac repair person ever! I got locked out of my computer all the way in france and he managed to help me right away! if you want someone super trustworthy and skilled with MacBooks, he is the person to contact! Totally awesome, I couldn't be more thankful for his awesome help :)

Shawn Rouse

I would give Mac Man a 4.75 but the system wouldn't let me. I found him recently when searching over a weekend for someone to help get me back up and running on my MacBook pro laptop. I work from my laptop and I had projects I could not access. He had me arrive right away and worked none stop to get me back to work with no loss of data. I have since upgraded my computer with his assistance and I am very happy with his advice and expertise. I would recommend him to everyone with confidence.

C Mcphee

do not let this man into your home. very unprofessional.

Corey Bechtel

Apple product solutions at their best!

mico ojdanic

great place to fix any of your apple products and very reasonable price

Anthony Julke

Awesome place to get your computer fixed! They get the job done and walk you through the process!

Shabab Ayub

Super nice guy and really fast!

Bryan Tank

Did an excellent job with my daughters Mac book after she spilled coffee on it. The price was very fair and he even stayed open passed closing I order to look at it and repair the unit for her. He is very friendly and professional and would highly recommend him.

Ramsey Hazineh

Excellent customer service. I spoke to Ahmed the owner of the shop over the phone and he was amazing. He was very patient and answered all my questions. I decided to bring in my MacBook Pro to upgrade the hard drive. Ahmed did everything the same day. All my data was safely transferred, he did an internal cleaning of my machine and upgraded the operating system. The price was fair and I picked up my laptop that same evening. I was very impressed with the overall service Ahmed was able to provide. I will definitely be recommending him to my friends and family.

Parker Stonehouse

Walked in, was told 4 min wait, waited , super nice guy walked me through exactly what he was doing, and what I could do to to make my mac perform better, Upgraded to 16 GB RAM and 244SSD never been faster, Works like new! Thanks

Farris Alhadrab

The best place ever! Been going to them for the last 9 years!!!! He’s willing to help and is extremely genuine. Mac repairman is an honest and legitimate business. Most of the 1 star reviews are from people that tried to rip the business off. Keep going Mac Repairman!!!

ronni muskat

Ahmed is incredible. My daughter took the bus from Waterloo to Kitchener and had her computer fixed by Ahmed quickly and inexpensively. Most importantly, he is nice and very professional. I would drive from Toronto to Kitchener to have him fix my computer if I had a problem. Please contact him with any of your Mac issues.

J Mc

Great place...straight forward with you and decent with pricing. Totally recommend!

Kingson So

This man is a legend. I was having issues with my display turning on and off (sleeping) and it was frustrating. I first took my Macbook Air to the Apple Store and their only solution was to replace the entire display for a hefty amount. I wasn't convinced so I found Ahmed online and decided to give it a go. He diagnosed the issue and although it was a difficult issue to find and fix, he worked relentlessly to stop my screen from flickering on and off. His price was very reasonable and a LOT better than Apple's price (since the issue wasn't even with the display...). Would recommend if you have any problems with your Mac!

Abby Goodrum

This is the only place I trust to fix my Macs. Ahmad fixed my laptop and my iMac and they are both better than new. Fair prices, great service, caring and professional all the way!

Robert Watson

I have used the Man Repair Man on more then one occasion and he has always gone above and beyond for me. I wouldn't take my computer to anyone else. A+++

Louis Pfeifer

Ahmad was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond my expectations. We’re lucky to have such a high quality Mac repair service in KW.

ciaran mc carthy

I can always count on these guys when I have trouble with my mac.

Darane Kim

I had a water spill on my Mac Air. Despite the fact that they weren't able to fix the damage they provided exceptional service to helping me find a solution. In fact Jason, one of the repair men, refurbished a Mac laptop to fit my budget and transferred all the recovered data from my old laptop into it, all done in less than a week. They genuinely put their customers' satisfaction first. I highly recommend their service. Fair price and excellent service.

Bryan Hunter

Excellent experience! I was referred to Mac Repair Man to address a keyboard issue. I walked in without an appointment expecting I would need to leave my laptop for at least a few days. I was told it would be fixed within an hour! I returned exactly in an hour and my laptop was ready! And the price was great. I will definitely use their services in the future and highly recommend them.

Andrea Vilcea

Honestly,I have nothing but great things to say about Ahmad! He helped fix my MacBook Air from liquid damage in no time! I went to both Best Buy and Apple and both were zero help. I will definitely be coming back if I ever need to and recommend him to everyone.

Cassia Groenenberg

Ahmed did a fantastic job in assisting in replacing the battery on my Macbook Pro. Originally, I was going to take my laptop to Apple, and they wanted to charge double the price and take my laptop for 7-10 days - which as a student I can't afford to give up my computer for that long! Ahmed stayed late and waited for me to bring my laptop in. He replaced the battery that evening in about 20 minutes! Great customer service and a very friendly, outgoing individual that shows you the process (which was pretty neat). Great price, great service, quick turn around made for a very happy customer. My laptop battery life is doing well! Thanks Ahmed!

Mukundhan Srinivasan

Super helpful. Puts customers first. Glad I found them.

john bech

Amazing service On time and below budget. These guys know exactly what they are doing. Keep up the great work and customer service

Raahim Ahmed

tldr reviews misleading, immature and rude at times, makes you feel bad for even asking a question, not very transparent, experience is luck of the draw. Spilled tea on my mac. Posted on a fb group where he pumped his own store's tires and had one of his shills comment to take it into his store. Gave him a call, he says he will give a free diagnosis and to bring it in and he'll open it then and there and explain what the severity of the situation is and what options I have. When I get there, I am not told about any free diagnosis and he says he'll look at it and try to fix it for 120, successful or not. When I went in to the store, the guy was talking on the phone about some personal matters for an hour and made us all just sit there and wait. Also when I gave my laptop, there was no contract , no receipt, nothing. He didn't even bother writing my name down when I offered it, said just a phone number is fine. You can tell a lot about a company from how they operate in their day to day operations. Epitome of sketchy business practices. I was a student at the time so I ask him later if he can just focus on data recovery instead of repair to which he says "there is no one in Ontario who can recover your data." That is blatantly not true, there are multiple services for data recovery in Ontario. I spoke with a few friends who run their own computer shops and they explained that data recovery is possible especially if the computer was turning on, even if the screen was black, which per his words, he managed to make it turn on but screen was black, but computer is not even turning on now that I just tried it. His response to any of my inquiries was I KNOW MORE THAN YOUR FRIENDS and had a very dismissive attitude to any of my inquiries as a customer. I get it, you run your shop and know macs, but that's certainly not the attitude to have to customers trying to assess the situation. You try explaining the situation at a reasonable enough level instead of making them feel bad for even trying to understand the situation with their own computers. Everyone specialises in their own thing. if we all operated from the high ground this fellow seems to stand on none of us would get anywhere. Also just cause you run your shop doesn't mean every other tech guy knows nothing. But no, he had such a know-it-all attitude. Not to mention any time I gave him a call he'd put me on hold for 15 20 minutes multiple times and then would just tell me to call back in a bit instead of just returning the call when he had a sec. How do I know when he is free, call him back only to be put on another 15 minute hold I guess. No concept of appointments or anything, just walk in whenever you want and wait while he deals with his personal business/other clients. Later he told me that to recover my data it will "cost more than your career. it will be like 20,000 to recover." Utter nonsense, first of all, why speak to a customer like that, I didn't say anything rude to the guy in our interactions and was respectful. I'm in accounting, if my lifetime earnings are 20k I definitely chose the wrong career. Second of all, there are multiple companies, yes in Ontario, who do data recovery and let me assure you, none wanted anywhere near 20k. He made it sound like data recovery is something only the FBI can do. Initially he said no one in Ontario can do data recovery for a Mac and then it was that it would cost 20k. When I went in to pick up my computer today he acted like he didn't even recognise me at first "how can I help you" lmao. Spent 2 hours there just waiting to pick it up and told another customer about how screwed I was while I waited saying "he lost all his data, he's a complete mess, I mean just look at him right now haha" Okay.. Overall, I don't think he's a bad guy, but he definitely has maturity issues . I'm guessing late 20s but acts more like a 16 yr old who's good with computers and hence thinks it somehow makes him a better, superior person to the rest of us simpletons. It's luck of the draw what your experience is like.

Phil Bryant

I originally took my MacBook Pro to a repair place close to where I work in Vaughan, recommended by our IT guy. I was told that this shop repairs all types of computers and similar devices at reasonable rates (not a Mac specialist). After 6 weeks and 2 techs, they were dumbfounded and unable to fix my Mac. I just took it into Mac Repair Man. The owner diagnosed the problem on the spot within minutes, in my presence. Approx. 1/2 hour later my Mac was repaired and at a price that I felt was very reasonable. Ahmad, the owner is a really pleasant guy that explains exactly what he's doing and quotes his work respectfully. He seems to sincerely care about his customers. I enthusiastically recommend Mac Repair Man!!

ryan g

One of the quickest turnaround times I have ever had on a Mac repair, I would highly recommend.

Mike B

Sent my hard drive in for data recovery and he got the job done at a decent price. Friendly service as well. Recommended for data recovery services.

Muzzy Ali

Ahmet is the best. He's so friendly, always willing to put in the extra effort, and I've been a loyal customer for over 3 years. I live in Toronto and make the trip down to kitchener for his services. Would never go to anyone else.

lukas Jungton

Sandra Dunn

I brought my mac in because the screen was flickering. He knew what was wrong right away . Excellent customer service. I highly recommended this business.

Brittany Anonthysene

Great guy, very good at what he does????????

Brandon H

Has every solution to your MacBook problems! Extremely reliable and very friendly atmosphere.

latoya wedderburn

Excellent experience! Had an issue with my macbook, called apple and they said they would need to hold my computer for a few days and would charge me 200-300$. Ahmad fixed my computer quickly and was cheaper as well! Highly recommend going to see him if you have a problem with your macbook.

Natasha Hannan

Been looking for a long time for someone to get the data off my mac and was continuously turned away, even from apple. The mac repair man was very friendly and provided great service with affordable pricing. Would recommend going to see him if you have any Apple product needs.

Sahr Wali

Best service and quality repair! Ahmed takes his time to understand what you need and really tries to give you the best deal. Great person to work and really looks after your MacBook. If I could give it any higher than 5 stars I would! 100% recommend, I'm not sure why any unhappy customers would give him a low review.

Allison Weber

Super quick fix!!! Amazing service. Spilled water all over my computer and managed to save all my data. Saved me lots of money as well. Thanks!

Wasy Zeitoun

Amazing, knowledgeable, honest and Reliable staff. Highly recommend them. Would give them more than 5 stars if i can!

Mahbod Haghighi

He got my screen fixed in less than 24 hours and it's still going strong a couple months later. Pricing was much better than anywhere else.

Donnita Deen

First class service

Summer Hunter

Great service! So fast and he was more then willing to work out a convenient time. Glad I took my computer there and will definatly go again if I have another problem with any of my Apple products. Thanks again!

Comic Sans

Rude , arrogant, Deceptive and NOT a safe person to trust personal data with, Buyer beware. BIG TIME!! Again i relate not sure how this company has the reviews, its not a good representation of there business practises all, Family members? Writing this review after allowing myself a good "cool down" period. Brought machine in, was told "i don't have time for you" so i waited 2 weeks before approaching them again. "be ready on Monday" ( left it with him for a long weekend) Tuesday came in. ( extra day) sorry come back in 30 minutes wasn't touched much less knew he didn't know why it was brought in. I felt as though something very shady is going on here. After specifying again i just needed a new hard drive i came in about 30 mins later to get my computer. Came home began to reload my computer only to hear a horrendous noise like my drive was about to over spool. I pulled the computer apart only to find a used hard drive that has long since been discontinued in my machine (2013 today being 2016) that wasn't even compatible with my mac. After documenting it. running serial numbers etc. went back in only to hear . . "ya it is common business practice to put used parts back into computers, we do it all the time" Apparently for this company it is but not for any business including apple as they are directly involved in a class action law suit for this same thing. in the end i paid $160 for yet another used hard drive to go into my machine and make shift at that. I was irate, i would never recommend this place. Felt compelled to open a full fraud investigation against this company ( its what do) but gave him my word i wouldn't but i regret saying it. Buyer beware. BIG TIME.

Alejandra Leonte

I would definitely recommend this place before making another purchase, my MacBook Air got repaired in the spam of 10 mins after been told that it could be recycle at the Apple store (the diagnostic was perfect in other aspects but the battery). So i was referred from the Apple store to Canada computers and from there i got referred to this place which thankfully took care of my issue. My laptop is now running with no battery problems and the area of the keyboard that was expanded/swollen got instantly fixed after he placed the new battery. Saved myself from expending over a thousand dollar right now.

Sarah G

Ahmed is the best. Top notch service. We've been to see him a couple times for different computers. Always quick, affordable service. We bought a laptop off of him a couple weeks ago - decent price and he included a bunch of extras for free. Stupidly, I upgraded my operating system (I kept being prompted to do so) which caused all kinds of problems. When I took it back, he wiped it clean again and put all the extras back on the computer (and stopped all the upgrade notifications) at no charge. We'll definitely be back.

Ryan Kauk

Best Apple repair shop, great price and great customer service, made my 2009 IMac new again.

Joanne Fernandez

Most personable and knowledgeable business man I had talked to that day regarding a battery replacement for my Macbook Pro. Very reasonable prices and quick turn around time! Thank you very much for your help! I definitely recommend coming here for your Macbook problems

Jeff Jordan

Excellent service for all mac needs.

Joanne Rutherford

I spent a full day with MacRepairMan last week while he took care of both my Apple laptop and iMac computer issues. He was friendly and helpful (and patient) ;) and gave me great advice on my software and hardware needs (he even helped me with my internet provider!). My system is now cleaner, faster and up-to-date. I drove 2 hours to check out his work and couldn’t be happier :) I would highly recommend him and will be sure to return in the future if I need anything else. Five stars!!!

Jay Henderson

Really knowledgeable, friendly guy. Kept my 8 year old Macbook Pro going for a long time, at a very reasonable price -- where as the Apple store just told me to buy a new one. Saved me a ton of money.

I went to apple store multiple times and they gave me the run around and wanted to charge an obscene amount of money. Ahmed personally took care of my macbook pro and had it fixed within hours for a very fair price. Mac repair man is by far the best choice in KW.

A very satisfactory experience with this business. Took my macbookpro to them to see if it could be fixed. In short order it was operational again better than before. I am very greatful for the service and Ahmed’s expertise. Highly recommend them for any sort of Apple repairs. Knowledgeable and reasonable. Thank you very much.

Unbelievable. I walked in without an appointment with a dead drive in a 2011 iMac. Problem diagnosed and explained in minutes. I was out of there in 40 minutes with a new SSD installed. Literally my best service experience ever. Reasonable rates. Highly personable. Never going to the Apple store again.

Jeremy Hunsinger

Good service overall perhaps a bit pricey for some but you get what you pay for

Interesting and efficient

I got way more than I bargained for. I phoned @ 5pm and to my surprise I was told I could bring my desktop in after hours for maintainance as they were closing. Ahmed knew exactly what the problem was and my computer was fixed that night. He even gave me a free troubleshoot the next day. Totally cool guy and killer service. Recommend them to anybody!

This guys are legends! They revived my macbook pro after I was told by the apple store that i'll be better off getting a new laptop. Excellent service

John Heath

I brought my Macbook Pro to Mac Man today for what was a relatively simple repair. He fixed that quickly and very affordably, and promptly fixed many other small items for no charge, all the while explaining to me what was wrong, why the item was failing and what he was doing to prevent it. An honest, passionate guy about what he does, tremendous service.

Kyra Woudsma

Incredibly helpful. He saved my computer 2 times. Would highly recommend over any other Mac repair store.

jenna moore

Honest, efficient, very knowledgeable! I highly recommend. I will never go anywhere else for all my Mac repairs and service.

Alex Hoang

Good pricing, I went in to clean my MacBook Pro because the insides were getting dusty. Also very nice guy

Isaak Paterson

Really fast service, and very friendly to talk to!

Paul Tower

After inheriting my daughter's old Powerbook, I needed a new operating system installed in order to use it. What I didn't know was that it needed to be upgraded to better meet our needs which my daughter confirmed. This was done, along with other maintenance, while I waited. In addition, Mac Repair Man did a house call to make sure that my Powerbook was in sync with our new TV. There is no better service for Apple products anywhere in the K-W, Cambridge, Guelph area. Thanks Mac Repair Man.

Tyler Brown

Took a bus from hamilton to get my mac fixed because he was the only guy who could get my mac back to me same day. Being enrolled in school for photography it was crucial that i got my mac back same day otherwise I would have likely failed my assignments

Adrian DeCoo

made my mac fast like a tesla wwwwwwwwwaaaaaaammm

Marla Rauchfleisz

This is long overdue but I had an excellent experience for a major repair to my macbook pro. Boo liquid damage. The gentleman told me ahead of time what they would be doing and what the cost would be. Very knowledgeable and outstanding quality of work. Highly recommend Mac Repair Man.

Sheldon Chi

David Hou

Helped me repair in a professional manner. Also very fast and efficient!

bobby joe

Good and trustworthy person Had a MacBook needed a screen repair gave me a reasonable price n less than 24hrs I got my Mac up and running????

Juan Sarmiento

Great service and outstanding customer communication!! Definitely the place to go for any Mac needs!

Karen Barna

Can't say enough about this place. I had my 5 yr old Mac in a local shop for 3 days. I lost 3 days of work. They charged me $65 "diagnostic fee" and then told me it was unrepairable. Took it to Ahmad. Same day, while I waited he fixed it! AND it was a mere fraction of the cost for the repair vs buying a new Mac which I was told was my only option by the other store. Not sure about these negative comments I see about women or customer service on here, but not only did I feel completely safe but he took the time to explain everything to me in layman's terms and let me watch him do the repair so I understood what he was doing. Perhaps some people do not understand his complete honest approach and sense of humour. He tells it like it is....no b.s. Some people just can't handle the hard truth I suppose lol....This guy is THE Mac Man. I won't take my stuff anywhere else ever. Thanks!!!

Naveed Khan

By far the best mac repair place. They are extremely friendly and provide great service. I was told by the apple store that I need a new computer, whereas here they fixed my laptop with warranty on the replacement parts for a fraction of the cost and it works like a dream. This should be your first stop (And will be your last)

jwb Heibein

Customer service was fantastic, prices were reasonable, and the repair turnaround was above and beyond!!!

D O'Krafka

Both my I pad and MacBook Pro have been rescued and repaired by the Mac Repair Man. A honest and reputable company! Thank you.

Kyle Fitz

This place deserves more attention. They took a look at my Mac free of charge and told me how much it would cost at an Apple Store and where to go. He was very helpful and focused on providing his service before asking for payment. This will be my number one choice for future issues

Katie Fraser-Thomas

The Mac Repair Man was awesome! He completely fixed my laptop after other places said it was better to just replace/buy a new computer. He had an incredible turnaround time and was so helpful. We will definitely bring our other Mac computers to him and I would highly recommend. He really knows everything Mac related!

these are nice people

Solved all my problems regarding getting my data off my macbook. Service was excellent and couldn't of asked for better.

Devon Krainer

You won't find a more honest, responsive and transparent repair team in town. Highly recommend!

I am not sure how this business has gotten the reviews it has, it must be his friends. I have actually seen reviews on yelp left by the owner and one of his employees, so i would question the integrity of exemplary reviews on this site. I brought my MAC in due to a problem with it shutting down randomly. I left it with the "MAC man " and was told he would get back in a couple of weeks. A month later I returned to see what was up only to find out he had not even looked at my computer. I told him if he did not have time to do the job I would take it elsewhere. He insisted he could "fit me in". While I was there he decided the best way to determine what was up with my computer was to use it to stream youtube videos. No diagnostics were ever run to my knowledge. Me being the idiot I am , I left my machine there again. 2 months later and no word from the Mac Man. So I go in to see him again. To my amazement I find my computer in a case and am told "he thinks he knows what the problem is and has ordered a part". Sure thing Mac man. I had had enough and I took my computer home that day. Mac man told me he would call me when the part came in, that was 5 months ago and I have heard nothing, not that I would ever take my computer there again. On my visits (3) to the Mac MAN , I got the opportunity to see other customers who had work done and saw a common pattern. Customers were constantly told he could not provide them a receipt for their payment and would email them a receipt later. Major warning signs there, never heard an established business that could not provide a receipt. Another common issue was his shaming his customers for using the coupons he distributes, his response was "I would think since I did such good work you would pay me appropriately". If you do not want people to use coupons, don't issue them!!! Anyway,, buyer beware, this gentleman is so unprofessional, has little to no interest in his customers, and although he states "quick" service that does not seem to be the case (side note, not once when I entered his business was he actually working on anything). To be fair, he did seem to have reasonable prices. Do your research,, look at other review sites, then determine if the marginal cost reduction afforded by the MAC Man is worth the headaches you will encounter. There is a particularly good review on Yelp from a lady who phoned him for information and he used his call display to get her number and send her nasty text messages. Buyer beware!!!!! If I could give -5 stars to this guy I would.

Elliot Jeon Lee

Took my computer in to get the hinge fixed, which was separating. Did not get it back by the time I was promised, but sometimes things happen. However, the hinge broke again soon after despite carrying it around in soft and hard shell cases. Clearly it wasn't fixed properly. Overall, pretty disappointed.

Hannah Phillips

Honest, respectable, and very helpful!

Vanessa Humphries

The Repair Man has been an awesome help when my mac pro crashed and the Apple store told me that my mac pro is worthless. the Repair Man was very honest and laid out our options of how he could fix the mac, buy it from me or sell me a newer version. He was very quick with assessing the damage on my mac and very easy to deal with throughout. I strongly recommend The Repair Man to anyone who had any technical difficulties with their mac and the Apple store have given them a hefty quote for a repair.

Steve Troy

Brought my old iMac in for diagnosis. Constantly crashing. Was told I could get it fixed for about $500, but was recommended to possibly buy a refurbished computer instead since the repair cost would be more than the value of my old iMac. Like other posters here I definitely sensed some shadiness going on. Decided to just take my iMac elsewhere for diagnosis. Mac Man actually didn't even put my computer filly back together btw. When I brought my computer to another shop.... RAM was missing from computer. Where did it go? Now I definitely have to look for another computer. Thanks Mac Repair?? Man!

best service!

Jason Gould

Have trusted the Mac Repair Man for years with many different apple products. I have had nothing but good service and experiences here. If you're not happy with a repair or purchase, simply take it back and he'll make sure you are satisfied with everything!

Camila Prado

This has been the fastest repair ever! I came in with an emergency with a virus and water damage on my Mac and needed it ASAP. Ahmed followed through with saving everything on my laptop even after I had restarted it and thought it had been wiped cleaned. I received my laptop the very next day due to needing it for school. He was very understanding about me needing it for nursing school and how urgent it was and worked on my time for pick ups. Great price and student friendly. Thanks again!

Meghan Myers

Ahmed was fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. I purchased a MacBook Air from him and was so impressed with his customer service.

Darryl Dale

Went above and beyond to fix my 13" Retina Macbook. Excellent to deal with and won't hesitate to use again.

RE: Retina screen replacement - Do NOT leave the store without looking carefully at your repair - my Retina screen had a crack in it - Mac Repair Man told me that I would be happy with the screen replacement he would install - when I picked up my laptop, it was busy in the store - I was rushed out the door with my laptop and I didn't have a chance to look closely at the repair - I was horrified when I tested out the screen at home.. certain background light on the display (white, light colour) brings out these embedded scratches on the screen - This is HORRIBLE - my only option is to try and get used to looking through embedded / brutal scratch marks on the screen while using the laptop or pay to get a useable screen installed by a trustworthy computer repair shop. I have used the Mac repair mans service on 4 occasions over the past 5+ years.. I am stunned and disgusted that a repair shop can put out this kind of poor quality and stand by it! I do not usually write reviews - But this one really got me angry. Do not waste your time or money with this Company.. He will make you feel like your getting a deal - he will make sure to tell you that also (snake charmer) - Buyer beware!!!

Beverly Leung

Super fast service, great guy who explains everything clearly and much cheaper than the Apple store!

Mohammad Adnan

Great humble guy. Truly helped me out with my laptop

sam nutrition

Very pleased and truly loved the service!! The repair man was very approachable, kind and also went out of his way to fix my mac. He did more than what I asked for so that was very cool. Thanks a lot, would def recommend.

Mark Sharma

He can get the job done, but he will scam you. If you decide to go see him, go with someone who understands how a computer works. Be careful when allowing him to do anything for you. Strongly recommend you go to a different spot.

Kristen

Awesome service and fair price. After spilling milk on my laptop keyboard it totally shut down and would not even start. I went to the apple store and they told me in order to fix it, it would cost way over what the laptop was worth and that I should just throw mine out and buy a new one. I then was recommended to go to the macbook repair man they were able to fix the whole lap top, for a fair price, and get all my data back. They also gave me a 90 day warranty which was really nice. Would highly recommend.

Marc Sgrignoli

Today the Mac Repair Man replaced the battery on my 2013 15 inch MacBook Pro. As soon as I walked into his shop, I could tell he knew what he was doing. Looking around, I could see many people have trusted him with their precious laptops, and that he was very organized. He did a terrific job on my battery, and he did it in only 30 minutes. He replaced it in front of me - effortlessly - while simultaneousley engaging in friendly conversation. I'm pretty sure he could have done the job blindfolded. I absolutely got the sense that he has done this a million times - very professionally. I can't recommend him enough. Where else could I have gone to get such a great job done, so quickly, and at a good price. Tomorrow, I am going to tell all my Mac owning friends at work about this business. I live about a half hour away in Guelph, and this was well worth the drive. Considering he will fix your laptop while you wait, I think it would be worth it for someone to drive from a lot further away to to have their repair done here. I am lucky I knew someone in Guelph who recommended him to me. Excellent job Mac Repair Man!

Amazing service and incredibly kind and helpful. I broke the screen on my Mac Air. Went to apple initially and they were going to charge me $60 just to diagnose it. The Mac Repair Man diagnosed it for free and walked me through my options from least expensive to most expensive. I'm very happy with the results! And it was a bonus that he got it done in one day.

Lauren Davison

Very happy with the services came in last week as I'm a mature student going back to school this September and haven't really used my computer for a while. He had my computer fixed with a brand new hard drive in less than an hour while there was like 6 others in there. highly recommend

Extremely fast and very affordable and desire to help with kindness
