Questions about Laptop Charging Port Repair
Straight answers before you come in.
USB-C or barrel jack: can you fix both?
Yes. We replace the connector by micro soldering, whether it is USB-C or a barrel jack, and test a full charge before the laptop goes back to you.
Could it be the charger or the battery instead?
We test with a known-good charger and check the battery first, because a worn cable or battery can look like a port problem. If it is the port, we replace it.
How long does Laptop Charging Port Repair take?
Typically about 1.5 h. Many repairs are finished the same day, depending on the issue and on whether we have the part. We give you an estimate when we quote.
What warranty comes with Laptop Charging Port Repair?
This repair carries a 90-day warranty on the installed part and the labor. It does not cover new impacts, drops or liquid contact after the repair. If the same fault comes back within that time, we look at it again at no charge.
How much does Laptop Charging Port Repair cost?
It depends on your device and model. The diagnostic is free and you get an upfront quote before any work begins. If you decide not to go ahead, you pay nothing.
Do I need an appointment?
No. Walk-ins are welcome during business hours. Booking online or calling ahead is optional, but it helps if your model is uncommon and you'd like us to confirm the part first.
