Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about screen replacement in Portobello, Edinburgh.
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 screen replacement jobs in Portobello 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 EH15 — Portobello High Street, the Promenade, Bath Street — and keep you updated by message until the laptop is back with you.
Yes — we cover the full EH15 postcode area. That includes Portobello High Street, the Promenade, Bath Street, the Promenade, Joppa, Brighton Place, 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 Portobello: 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.
Yes — provided the original was a touchscreen and the replacement is genuine OEM-spec, full touch and pen functionality is preserved. We supply matching panels for Portobello customers, including 2-in-1 convertibles and Surface devices. After fitting, we calibrate touch input and verify multi-finger gestures, palm rejection, and pen pressure (where supported). If you're unsure whether your laptop is touch-enabled, send us the model number and we'll confirm before ordering parts.
Usually yes. Flickering, vertical lines, or coloured bands are typically caused by a damaged ribbon cable, a failing inverter (older laptops), or a faulty panel itself. For Portobello customers we test by gently flexing the screen at the hinge — if the picture changes, the cable is the culprit (often a quick fix). If the panel itself is faulty, replacement runs higher but is still usually cost-effective compared to a new laptop.
Yes — desktop monitor and iMac screen replacement is something we handle in-house for Portobello customers. iMac screens are bonded assemblies and require careful disassembly with proper tools — we have them. For standalone monitors, we can replace the panel where parts are economical, or recommend replacement where they aren't. We can collect from anywhere in the EH15 area; iMacs are typically a 24–48 hour repair once parts are sourced.
