Laptop repairs in St Ives and across Cambridgeshire
Tek Centre repairs laptops and MacBooks at our shop on Crown Street in the centre of St Ives. We work on devices from all major manufacturers — Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, Toshiba, Samsung and Apple — and we're experienced with gaming laptops from MSI, Razer and ASUS ROG.
Whether your laptop has a cracked screen, a broken keyboard, a charging problem, or it's running slowly after years of use, we can diagnose the issue and give you a clear recommendation. We won't push unnecessary repairs — if a budget upgrade will solve the problem, we'll say so.
Common laptop repairs we carry out
Screen replacement — A cracked or dead laptop screen is one of the most common repairs. We source screens for hundreds of laptop models and can typically complete the repair within 1–2 business days.
Keyboard replacement — Sticky keys, missing keys, or a keyboard that simply doesn't respond are all repairable. For MacBook keyboards with the butterfly mechanism, we have experience with the specific challenges those present.
SSD and storage upgrades — Replacing a spinning hard drive with an SSD typically transforms performance. We carry out the upgrade and migrate your data so nothing is lost.
Charging faults — USB-C, DC barrel and MagSafe charging ports can fail from wear or accidental damage. We replace ports and cables as needed.
Water and liquid damage — If a drink has been spilled on your laptop, act quickly — the sooner it reaches us, the better the chances of recovery. We clean the internals and assess what has been affected.
MacBook-specific repairs — We repair MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models including M1, M2 and M3 generations. We're experienced with display cable faults, liquid damage and SSD recovery.
