Laptop Liquid Damage Repair

The answer here is act fast, depending on the type of liquid it is important to firstly remove any power and the battery, as this speeds up the corrosion process.

Your laptop will be completely disassembled and any moisture removed. The component will then be washed down with a special solution to remove any residual impurities, from what was spilt; sugar, salt, etc. The Laptop will then have a full hardware service only then can we assess the laptop to identify any further damage, the chance of the unit being fixed after performing this treatment is quite high.

Hardware Service

Much like a car most PC’s and laptop’s require periodic hardware servicing. Due to the increased capability of laptops these days, they produce a lot of heat, to disperse the heat additional cooling fans draw air through the machine which in turn also draws in dust. Dust build up will block vents, fans, cooling systems and heat sinks.

If this blockage is left the system will experience issues;

* Constants fans running,
* Extreme heat from vents,
* Intermittent video errors,
* Laptop shutting itself down to protect itself,
* Intermittently not starting,
* The dreaded blue screen of dead BSOD,

And eventually hardware failure!!!

What is involved in a Laptop service

Dust – the laptop needs to be disassembled and any dust needs to be vacuumed out rather than blown out. If the laptop is blown out the dust will embed itself in the numerous small ports, sockets and mechanism which can contribute to ongoing issues.

The cooling system – The processor, video cards and heat sinks will be cleaned and new thermal paste applied to ensure that the heat is transferred into the cooling system properly.

Alignment – this is a crucial part, upon reassembly the unit cannot just be just screwed together, due to the number of small mainboards, sockets, ribbon cables and ports the machine needs to have even pressure applied to all screws to allow correct alignment of all components of the laptop, only then can each component be tested on its own integrity.

Testing – Once the machine is re-assembled each component hard disc, video card, memory, processor can be tested for performance and reliability.

So if any of the above problems arise … it may just be a hardware service.
