Why Your Laptop Repair Shop Is Costing You Hundreds – And How We Fix It

Are You Overpaying for Laptop Repairs?

It happens more than you think. You drop your laptop off at a “cheap” repair shop, expecting a quick fix. Weeks later, you’re hit with a bill that’s double what you expected, with hidden fees, unnecessary replacements, or even unresolved issues.

At FirstAidPC, we believe repairs should be transparent, affordable, and effective—without the hidden costs that so many London shops sneak in.

Why Most Repair Shops Charge Too Much

1. Unnecessary Part Replacements

   
   

   Some shops replace components that aren’t broken just to make a bigger profit.

2. Inflated Labour Costs

   
   

   Labour can be charged per hour with little transparency, and estimates aren’t honoured.

3. Poor Diagnosis

   
   

   If the technician doesn’t understand the problem fully, you pay for trial-and-error fixes.

4. Hidden Fees

   
   

   Diagnostic fees, shipping, or “service charges” can appear after the work is done.

Real Savings Example

A local Hampstead Heath customer came to us with a laptop that wouldn’t start. Other shops quoted over £450, saying the motherboard needed replacing. Our team diagnosed a simple power issue, fixed it in under an hour, and charged just £95.

That’s over £350 saved—and a happy customer who trusts us for future repairs.
