These are a few of the most common types of out of warranty faults we repair:
Sometimes it can be earthing faults, over heating or even the battery, the most common however is the charging socket (block), these have the most ware & tare and common these get snagged and can rip the socket.
Charging blocks (internal) which have come away from the main board are repaired at a fixed rate of £80.00. Many times and just come away from the board, they are only really small feet holding it on. When we repair this it is usually stronger than before, also when we can (depending on the design of the notebook) we can pack it, so will be even stronger. If the socket is broken or cracked and we need to replace it, these usually cost around £10 – £25.
Laptop screen repairs are very common mainly due to them being the weakest part of the device. It is difficult to give an exact quote for a replacement screen as we need to dismantle the laptop and replace on a like for like basis. There are various codes and serial numbers on the actual components, thus needing the laptops to be stripped down before a quotation for the exact screen can be given. This must however be done by an experienced engineer as to ensure no further damage to the laptop.
All of the repair work (engineer time) will be fixed at £45.00inc. VAT and the average cost of a new screen is between £50 – £200 dependent on laptop. We can repair all size of machines, netbooks, notebooks and MACs
We charge in advance for the labour but will always confirm a price for the new LCD before it is ordered. We will always try to get you the best price for replacement LCD
Many of the faults and errors that happen when using a computer are linked to the motherboard, also the majority of motherboard issues are caused by the notebooks over heating.We are able to make various repairs to motherboards like graphics, wireless, controllers and most commonly the charging block.
The most common being alcohol and fizzy drinks.
Many times the liquid can get into different parts and components, sometimes it may be just replacing parts, other times it will be cleaning and restoring, we have plenty of experience in all areas.
The most commonly effected is the keyboard, (please see the section below) but it is difficult to quote without having the laptop stripped down at our workshop.
We can either try to repair the keyboard, if it is just missing some keys or we can replace it. The way keyboards are designed is they have one complete membrane, if this gets damaged, often all that can be done is to replace the actual board. The main faults are either the keys have come off or don’t work.
We charge £20+VAT to repair notebook keyboards.
The average cost of a replacement keyboard ranges £20 – £50
Generally hard drives are easily accessible and we will be able to replace them including the charge of a standard software repair and rescue.
Our fixed price including re-installation of operating system is £49.00.
