Glad to be of help. Please read the rest of the edited reply before this one.
Here is what to do if disk utility cannot repair the disk and you want to attempt to fix it:
You should back up any important data on your startup disk before erasing it. Erasing your startup disk deletes everything stored on it, including items in your home folder like your documents and items on your desktop.
If you don't have a recent backup of personal data that's stored on your startup disk, you can use these steps to try to back up your data to an external drive:
Connect an external USB, Thunderbolt, or FireWire drive to your Mac. The drive needs to be the same size or larger than your current startup disk. It also needs to be a drive that you can erase.
Use macOS Recovery to erase the external drive, then install macOS onto the external drive. Make sure that you select the external disk as the one you want to erase. Don't select your built-in startup disk, usually named Macintosh HD.
After installation is finished, your Mac automatically restarts from the external drive. When Setup Assistant appears, select the option to migrate your data from another disk. Choose your built-in startup disk as the source to migrate your data from.
When migration is done, complete the steps of the setup assistant. After the desktop appears, confirm that your data is present on the external drive.
Now that you've made a backup to an external drive, follow these steps:
Use macOS Recovery to erase your built-in startup disk and reinstall macOS. Select the built-in startup disk as the one you want to erase, not the external drive. When installation is finished, your Mac automatically restarts from your built-in startup disk.
After you erase your startup disk and reinstall macOS, your Mac automatically restarts and setup assistant appears. To copy your personal data back to your startup disk, select the option in the setup assistant to migrate your data from an existing Time Machine backup or other disk. Choose the external drive as the source to migrate your data from.
If you're unable to erase your startup disk or reinstall macOS, your Mac might need repair. Make an appointment with an Apple Genius or an Apple Authorized Service Provider for more help.
