Slow, dead, or not charging does not always mean replace.
For Wood River Valley laptop problems, start with the symptom: no power, no charge, slow performance, malware, heat, battery, broken screen, or data risk. HDR can tell you whether a repair, upgrade, cleanup, or replacement makes the most sense.
Laptop & PC repair starting prices
MacBook parts tend to cost more than Windows equivalents. Either way, you get an exact quote before any work starts.
* Data recovery turnaround depends on drive condition. SSD/RAM upgrade prices are labor only — drive/memory cost is additional.
Mac or Windows? I do both.

Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, Surface — all brands. Screen replacement, keyboard swap, battery, SSD upgrade, virus removal, tune-ups.

Sound familiar?
These are the most common laptop issues I fix. If yours is on this list, I can probably have it back to you today.
Takes forever to boot
Usually a dying hard drive. An SSD upgrade ($49 + drive) turns a 3-minute boot into 15 seconds.
Cracked or blank screen
Screen replacement from $99. I match your exact panel — matte, glossy, touch, or Retina.
Dies in 30 minutes
Battery's shot. New battery from $69, installed same day. Your laptop should last 4+ hours again.
Won't turn on at all
No lights, no charging light, black screen, or USB-C power weirdness? Use the no-power bench rail before pressing it again.
Pop-ups & weird behavior
Malware or virus. I'll clean it out, remove the junk, and set up protection. From $39.
Overheating / loud fan
Dust buildup or thermal paste failure. Deep clean + new thermal paste gets it running cool and quiet.
Keyboard not working
Stuck keys, dead keys, or liquid damage. Keyboard repair from $79 — or external keyboard as a quick fix.
Three steps. That's it.

Questions about laptop repair
How much does a laptop screen replacement cost?
Laptop screen replacement starts at $99. MacBook Retina displays cost more than standard Windows laptop screens. I source the exact panel for your model — matte, glossy, touchscreen, or Retina — so it looks factory-fresh. I'll confirm the screen is the issue before starting.
Can you work on MacBooks with Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4)?
Yes. I work on all MacBook models including the latest Apple Silicon machines. Screen replacement, battery swap, keyboard repair, and SSD upgrades are all on the table. Apple Silicon Macs have soldered storage on newer models, but I can help with external solutions and data migration.
Will an SSD upgrade really make my old laptop faster?
Night and day difference. If your laptop still has a mechanical hard drive, swapping it for an SSD is the single best upgrade you can make. Boot times drop from 2–3 minutes to under 20 seconds. Apps open instantly. The whole machine feels new. Upgrade labor starts at $49, plus the cost of the SSD (typically $30–$80 for 500GB–1TB).
Can you recover files from a laptop that won't turn on?
Usually, yes. If the hard drive or SSD itself is still functional (which it often is even when the laptop is dead), I can pull the drive and recover your files. If the machine has no lights or no charging response, start with the laptop won't turn on repair guide so we know whether this is power repair, data recovery, or both. Data recovery starts at $79. I'll be upfront about chances before you commit.
How do I know if my laptop is worth repairing?
Good rule of thumb: if the repair costs less than 40–50% of a replacement, it's usually worth it. I'll always give you an honest assessment. Sometimes I tell people "this laptop has had a good run — put the repair money toward a new one." No hard sell, ever.
My kid spilled water on their Chromebook — can you fix it?
Bring it in ASAP. Turn it off, don't charge it, and get it to me as fast as possible. Liquid damage gets worse over time as corrosion sets in. I'll open it up, clean the board, and assess the damage. The sooner I see it, the better the odds. Same advice as phones — skip the rice.
