How it works
1. Get a quote: Send model + what you want done (e.g., “iMac G4 800 MHz, install OS X Tiger”).
Ship: Pack well (use lots of bubble wrap!), include power lead. You can remove keyboards/mice to save on postage.
Drop-off: Local to the Cotswolds? Drop off your Mac and cut your shipping costs to zero! We offer a pickup service too. Ask us when you enquire.
2. Ship or drop‑off:
3. We get to work: Install/upgrade, optimise, and test. We share photos or a short video of the result.
4. Return: We ship back via insured courier or arrange collection. You’ll also get a care sheet explaining the work we carried out.
Data safety: we won’t touch your personal files unless you ask for backup/migration.
Why Bondi Mac?
-
We’ve spent years working on Macs. From iMac G3s and iBooks to Power Macs and Mac Pros, we know the quirks, intricacies, and limits of each model. Every repair, upgrade, or custom setup we complete is done with that deep understanding, so your vintage Mac runs exactly as it should; safely, reliably, and as efficiently as possible.
-
At Bondi Mac, what you see is what you get. Our service packages are set at fixed prices so there are no surprises.
Need something custom? We quote at an hourly rate, so you always know what you’re paying for and can make informed decisions before we carry out any work.
-
Bondi Mac exists because we wanted to turn our Mac obsession into a career. We can therefore confidently say we treat every Mac we receive like it’s our own. We’ll even give it a complimentary clean with electronics safe products.
Whether it’s a nostalgic iBook for your home office, a Power Mac for retro gaming, or a fully restored iMac for displaying in a man cave, we handle it with care, respect, and precision.
Our goal is to help preserve the character and functionality of your Mac, keeping it safe, authentic, and ready to enjoy.
