Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about keyboard replacement in Sighthill and Wester Hailes, 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 keyboard replacement jobs in Sighthill and Wester Hailes 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 EH11 — Wester Hailes Road, Calder Road, Sighthill Loan — and keep you updated by message until the laptop is back with you.
Yes — we cover the full EH11 postcode area. That includes Wester Hailes Road, Calder Road, Sighthill Loan, Sighthill, Wester Hailes, the Calders, 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 Sighthill and Wester Hailes: 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.
Often, yes. Sticky or unresponsive keys are usually one of two things: debris under the key (crumbs, dust, hair), or liquid residue from a past spill that's gummed up the membrane below. For Sighthill and Wester Hailes customers we open up the keyboard, ultrasonic-clean what we can, and replace what we can't. Sometimes a single key cap and rubber dome is enough; sometimes the full keyboard needs swapping. Honest assessment first.
Yes — butterfly keyboards (2015–2019 MacBook Pro and 12" MacBook) are something we handle for Sighthill and Wester Hailes customers. Apple's butterfly mechanism is notoriously failure-prone and replacement is a top-case-out job (the keyboard is integral to the entire top assembly). It's a more involved repair than older MacBook keyboards but absolutely doable. We use OEM-grade top-case assemblies; turnaround is usually 3–5 working days depending on parts.
Yes — wireless and wired external keyboards we'll diagnose for Sighthill and Wester Hailes customers, though for budget keyboards replacement is often cheaper than repair. Mechanical keyboards (Keychron, Ducky, Logitech G, Razer, etc.) are usually worth fixing — switch replacement, keycap repairs, USB cable issues. Apple Magic Keyboards we can sometimes recell (battery) or repair the lightning charging port. We'll always quote up front before committing.
