Repairing older Microsoft laptops
Surface Laptops are sealed machines: the keyboard deck is bonded on older models and the screen is glued, so most repairs start with careful screen removal. Batteries and SSDs are behind the screen; newer models have a removable SSD. Surface Book hinges and the detach mechanism are repairable. Alcantara keyboard decks are replaced whole.
Models covered
Surface Laptop 1 through 7, Surface Laptop Go, Surface Laptop Studio and Surface Book. If yours is not named here, bring it in anyway; if it has a circuit board, we work on it.
What usually fails at this age
Batteries first: anything more than two years old that will not hold a charge, shuts off early or has started to swell needs a new cell. Then hinges, ports and drives, all of which are quick, inexpensive repairs on older laptops. Screens for the common models are stocked; the rest are ordered.
Turnaround
Same day on stocked parts, 3 to 5 business days when ordered. We check parts availability and give you the price before you commit.
