Google reviewVery friendly and informative, service was completed quickly and the cost very reasonable. They were also very honest in advising me an upgrade was an unnecessary expense.

Laptop repairs we carry out
Screen replacement
Cracked, broken or dead laptop screens replaced. We source screens for all major laptop brands and most models. Same-day fitting available on common screen sizes.

Power fault diagnosis
Laptop not charging, not turning on, or randomly shutting down. We diagnose the specific fault — power socket, battery, motherboard or charging circuit — and advise on the most practical fix.
Virus and malware removal
Full system clean-up following infection. Malware, adware and unwanted software removed. Security recommendations provided to reduce the risk of reinfection.

Honest advice
If a repair is not cost-effective for the age of your machine, we will tell you honestly. We would rather give you a straight answer than charge for a repair that does not make sense.
Home, business and gaming laptops
From everyday family laptops to business ThinkPads and gaming machines, we tailor the repair to how the device is actually used. That helps us recommend the right fix rather than the most expensive one.
Laptop repair questions
How much does a laptop screen replacement cost?
Screen replacement prices vary by brand and model, typically starting from around £60–£80 for common models. We will give you a firm price once we have confirmed the screen size and specification needed.
Is it worth repairing an older laptop?
Often yes — particularly if the fault is a screen, battery or SSD rather than a motherboard issue. We will give you an honest assessment of whether the repair cost makes sense for your laptop’s age and condition.
My laptop will not turn on — can you fix it?
Yes. A laptop that will not power on can be caused by a flat battery, a faulty charger, a failed DC jack, or a motherboard fault. We diagnose the specific cause before recommending any repair.
How long does a laptop repair take?
Many common repairs — screen replacement, SSD upgrade, keyboard — can be done same-day. More complex faults requiring parts sourcing typically take 2–5 working days.
Do you repair gaming laptops?
Yes. We repair gaming laptops from Asus ROG, Dell Alienware, Lenovo Legion, MSI, Gigabyte, Razer and other brands — screen replacement, overheating, keyboard and power faults.
