A Sony Vaio VGN-SZ381P that won't start, won't charge or has a broken screen is usually repairable. We find the fault first, then tell you what it will cost.
The faults we see most on machines like this are power and charging problems, failed hard drives, damaged screens and hinges, and overheating. Software trouble is just as common: Windows that won't load, viruses, and laptops that have slowed to a crawl.
- Hinges, casing and cosmetic repair
- Windows repair, virus and malware removal
- Battery replacement
- Screen and backlight repair
- Keyboard and trackpad replacement
- Power socket and charging faults
- Motherboard repair at component level
- Hard drive, SSD and memory upgrades
Every repair starts with a £45 + VAT assessment. We strip the laptop down and troubleshoot it at the bench, which takes time, and then quote before any chargeable work goes ahead. If the files matter more than the laptop itself, we can also recover the data from a drive that has failed.
