What's wrong with your laptop?
Pick the closest match. We'll tell you what it usually means and exactly what we'd do about it — no jargon, no obligation.
A laptop screen that lights up but shows nothing — or shows cracks and lines — is almost always the panel itself, not the machine.
We match the correct panel for your model, fit it, and test brightness, colour and viewing angles before handover.
What we do best.
Four repairs make up most of what lands on our bench. Here's how each one is actually done at Royal Tech.
Screen repairs
A clear screen, matched to your machine.
Laptop panels look alike and aren't — resolution, connector and mounting all differ by model. We source the correct panel for your exact machine, fit it cleanly, and test brightness and colour across the display before you collect.
- ✓Correct panel for your exact model
- ✓Brightness & colour tested
- ✓All major brands covered
Battery & power repairs
Unplugged, and staying that way.
We don't guess between battery, charger and board — we test all three. If it's the battery, a quality replacement goes in and gets verified through a charge cycle. If it's the charger, we'll tell you that instead of selling you a battery.
- ✓Battery, charger & circuit all tested
- ✓Quality replacement batteries
- ✓Charge-cycle verified
Speed & boot fixes
Old laptop, new lease of life.
Most 'slow laptop' jobs end one of two ways: a failing drive strangling everything, or a system that needs proper attention. We find which — and where a drive upgrade is the fix, it's the single biggest speed jump an older laptop can get.
- ✓Drive health diagnosed first
- ✓Upgrades quoted honestly
- ✓Data handled carefully
Keyboard repairs
Every key, working again.
Dead keys, sticky keys, keys that type themselves — we replace the keyboard unit for your model (or the top case where the two are one piece) and test every single key on the bench before handover.
- ✓Full keyboard units replaced
- ✓Every key tested
- ✓Spill damage assessed honestly
Royal Tech assesses and repairs laptops and MacBooks at 13 Main Street, Rathfarnham, Dublin 14 — screens, batteries and everyday faults. Bring your laptop in or message us first for a free quote; we confirm what is wrong and what the repair will cost before any work starts.
Protect your files first
If your laptop still switches on, back up your important files before any repair — documents, photos, coursework. Some faults put data at risk, and a backup means your files are safe whatever the assessment finds. If it will not switch on at all, bring it in and we will talk you through the options honestly.
And if assessment shows a repair does not make economic sense, we will say so — you can look at our laptops and MacBooks or ask about trade-in instead of spending money on the wrong fix.
Screens, batteries & everyday faultsHow we work, in four promises.
Free means free
The assessment costs nothing — whether you go ahead with the repair or walk away. You'll never pay to find out what's wrong.
The price before the work
You get the full quote up front, before anything is opened or ordered. The price we agree is the price you pay.
Quality parts, tested twice
Every repair is tested on the bench after fitting, then checked again at handover — with you, before you leave.
Straight answers
If a repair costs more than the laptop is worth, we say so — and show you what your options are instead.
From broken to back to work.
Walk in, or message first
Walk in any day — or WhatsApp us what's happening with the machine and we'll tell you what to bring.
Free check & honest quote
We assess the laptop on the bench and confirm the full price and timeframe with you. Nothing owed if you decline.
We repair — with your go-ahead
Only once you've said yes do we start. Quality parts, fitted properly, tested as we go.
Tested & back to work
Final checks at handover, with you. Your laptop, working — and your files exactly as you left them.
Dublin keeps the receipts.

Before you visit.
How much will the repair cost?
It depends on the exact model and the fault, so we never guess online. Bring the device in — or message us on WhatsApp — and after a free assessment we confirm the full price with you before any work starts. If you decide not to go ahead, nothing is owed for the assessment.
How long will it take?
That depends on the fault and what the repair needs, so we confirm the timeframe together with your quote after the assessment — before you commit to anything.
Do I need to book an appointment?
No booking is needed. Walk in any day of the week, or message us on WhatsApp first and we will tell you what to bring.
Which models do you repair?
All major laptop brands are assessed in store, Windows and Mac included. If a repair is not worthwhile, we will tell you honestly and can talk through replacement options.
What should I bring?
Just the device — and its charger if the problem is charging or power related. If the device might still be under the manufacturer's warranty, it is worth checking that first; we are happy to advise either way.
