Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long does Acer laptop repair take in London?
A: Common repairs like battery replacement or keyboard replacement may be completed the same day, depending on parts availability. Complex component-level motherboard issues typically take 1–3 business days.
Q: Is it worth repairing an Acer laptop?
A: Yes, repairing is highly worthwhile, especially for screen damage, battery issues, overheating, or software faults. Component-level motherboard repair makes fixing older, high-spec models highly economical compared to buying new.
Q: Can Acer laptop screens be replaced?
A: Yes, we replace damaged LCD/LED screens for Aspire, Swift, Nitro, Predator, and all other models, ensuring the replacement matches the original display quality.
Q: Will my data be safe during repair?
A: Reputable repair centres follow strict protocols: we do not access personal data. If storage requires repair, you are informed first, and data backup is always recommended before any major service.
Q: Is it worth fixing a broken Acer laptop, or should I just replace it?
A: In 90% of cases, repairing is the smarter financial choice. Repairing an Acer laptop fault typically costs 20% to 50% of the price of a replacement model, especially if the core components (CPU/GPU) are still functional. Repair also prevents the hassle of data migration and setup of a new machine.
Q: What is the most common failure issue in Acer laptops?
A: The most frequent issues we see are broken charging ports (DC Jack) and physical hinge failures—especially on older Aspire and budget models. These require micro-soldering and case reinforcement, which we specialize in performing permanently.
Q: How much does it cost to repair a broken Acer laptop hinge?
A: Hinge repair and casing mount restoration typically range from £100 to £180, depending on whether it’s a repair/reinforcement or a full hinge replacement and how much casing damage is involved. We provide a fixed quote upon inspection.
