(This page covers repairs that apply specifically to laptop computers. However, almost all our repair services are available for laptops where applicable).
Trust Disc Depot with your Broken Laptop
Laptops are notorious for breaking, and it’s frustrating for your computer to be unusable or restricted. However, unlike desktop PCs, laptop computers often use custom parts which are much harder to repair and replace. While a moderately-skilled amateur can often fix a number of problems with desktop PCs, the equivalent problems in laptops often require an expert. This is partly because their very tightly-packed design makes them infamously difficult to strip and reassemble.
However, while such repairs can often be difficult, our technicians have had years of dealing with them- they’re some of the most experienced laptop technicians in Dundee. Before undertaking such work, we’ll take a good look at your system and give you an estimate of the cost.
Where replacement parts are required to fix your computer (a particular sticking point with laptops), we know where to source them- and usually at a very affordable price. Why ditch your laptop when you can have it fixed for a fraction of the cost of a new one?
If you’re unsure what the fault is with your computer, feel free to discuss it with our staff.
