Computer & Laptop Repair cost: questions people ask
Most UK computer and laptop repairs cost £45–£300, with about £75 typical. Software fixes sit at the bottom; MacBook screens and motherboard work sit at the top.
Simple fixes often take one to two hours. If a part has to be ordered, expect a few days.
Under the Consumer Rights Act, a service must be carried out with reasonable care and skill. If it is not, you can ask the repairer to put it right or, in some cases, get some money back.
If the repair costs more than half the price of a comparable replacement, a new or refurbished laptop is often better value.
Data recovery, software licences, collection and delivery, and upgrades are commonly charged separately.
