Our Water Damage Repair Process
Surface devices are tightly sealed — repair requires specialist tools and microscopy-level inspection of the logic board.
Disassembly & Visual Inspection
We open the device using precision tools and inspect all components under magnification for corrosion, burn marks, and short circuits.
Ultrasonic Cleaning
The logic board and affected components are cleaned in an ultrasonic bath to remove mineral deposits and corrosion — the most effective method available.
Component-Level Diagnosis
Using multimeters and thermal cameras, we identify damaged ICs, capacitors, and power rails on the board.
Micro-Soldering Repair
Damaged components are replaced at the board level using hot-air rework stations and microscopes — far more effective than replacing the whole board.
Full Function Test
Screen, keyboard, charging, Wi-Fi, camera, and audio are all verified before handover.
Pricing Guide
Final pricing depends on the extent of damage found during diagnosis. We quote before proceeding — no surprises.

Frequently Asked Questions — Surface Water Damage
What should I do immediately after my Surface gets wet?
Power it off immediately — do not attempt to turn it on or charge it. Wipe the exterior dry and bring it to us as soon as possible. Every hour matters with liquid damage.
What are the chances of recovering a water-damaged Surface?
Recovery rate depends on response speed and liquid type. Plain water caught within 24 hours has an over 80% success rate. Coffee, juice, and seawater cause faster corrosion. We assess every device before quoting.
Do you charge if you cannot fix my Surface?
No. We operate a no fix, no fee policy. If we cannot repair your device, you only pay a RM50 diagnostic fee.
Will my data be safe during water damage repair?
We take every precaution to protect your data. In most cases data is fully preserved. If the storage is damaged, we offer separate data recovery.
How long does Surface water damage repair take?
Assessment takes 1–2 hours. Full repair typically takes 1–2 working days depending on severity.
