Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about keyboard replacement in Melrose, Scottish Borders.
Every laptop job is a little different, so we discuss the work and the price directly with you before anything starts. Send us a message or give us a call with a quick description of the issue and we'll come back with a clear plan tailored to your laptop. No surprises and no hidden fees — you'll know exactly what's involved before you commit.
Most keyboard replacement jobs in Melrose are completed the same day or within 24–48 hours, depending on the fault and parts availability. If you book first thing in the morning, simple fixes are usually returned by the evening. For more complex jobs we can collect from anywhere in TD6 — High Street, Buccleuch Street, Market Square — and keep you updated by message until the laptop is back with you.
Yes — we cover the full TD6 postcode area. That includes High Street, Buccleuch Street, Market Square, the Abbey side, Tweedbank border, Dingleton, and the rest of central Edinburgh. Whether you need a workshop drop-off, a home visit, or doorstep collection, we adapt to fit your schedule.
All our labour comes with a 30-day workmanship warranty — if the same fault returns, we'll put it right. Parts we supply (batteries, SSDs, screens, keyboards) carry the manufacturer's warranty, typically 6–36 months depending on the component.
We repair every major laptop brand in Melrose: Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, Toshiba, MSI, Razer, Microsoft Surface, and more. Business-grade machines like Lenovo ThinkPad, Dell Latitude/XPS, and HP EliteBook/ProBook are also fully covered. If you're not sure whether your model is supported, just send us a message — almost all are.
Usually yes. For Melrose laptops we'll first try a non-invasive clean — keycap removal, isopropyl wipe-down, debris extraction. That fixes a lot of "sticky key" cases. If the residue is from a sugary spill that's reached the membrane below, the cleaning won't hold and a full keyboard swap is the right call. We'll diagnose and quote before doing anything irreversible.
Yes — and we know this repair well. The butterfly mechanism Apple used from 2015 to 2019 is genuinely fragile (a single piece of dust can wedge a key open), and Apple's own repair programme covered some models for years. For Melrose owners outside the warranty programme, we replace the full top-case assembly with an OEM-grade replacement. Bench time is around 2–3 hours; total turnaround usually 3–5 days.
Yes — but the economics matter. Cheap wireless keyboards are usually replace-not-repair territory. Mechanical keyboards or premium wireless models (Apple, Logitech MX, Keychron, Das Keyboard) are absolutely worth fixing, and we do switch swaps, keycap replacement, USB-C port repairs, and battery cell recelling for Melrose customers. Honest assessment so you know the score before any money changes hands.
