A faulty laptop keyboard disrupts everything — and the causes range from a single stuck key to a complete membrane failure from a spill. Unlike a desktop keyboard that's simply unplugged and replaced, a laptop keyboard is integrated into the chassis and requires disassembly. But the repair itself is well-understood for most major brands.
Water and liquid spills are the most common cause of keyboard failure — and also the most time-sensitive. The first 24 hours after a spill determine whether the damage stays confined to the keyboard or spreads to the motherboard. If you've just spilled on your laptop, power it off immediately and bring it in.
HP laptop keyboard replacement covers the full HP range. HP Pavilion keyboards (the most common repair) are typically a single panel secured by screws and ribbon cable — from $79. HP Envy and HP Spectre keyboards are thinner and more integrated — from $89. HP EliteBook business keyboards have a higher build quality and are available in multiple language layouts — from $89. Backlit HP keyboard replacement from $99 (includes backlight connector compatibility).
Dell laptop keyboard replacement covers Inspiron, Vostro, XPS, and Latitude. Dell Inspiron 15 and 14 keyboards from $79. Dell XPS keyboards are ultrathin and backlit — from $99. Dell Latitude keyboards (business, sometimes with Smart Card slot) from $89.
Lenovo laptop keyboard replacement covers IdeaPad, ThinkPad, and Yoga. Lenovo IdeaPad keyboards from $79. ThinkPad keyboards are notable for their travel depth and TrackPoint nub — ThinkPad keyboard replacement from $89 (maintaining TrackPoint function). Lenovo Yoga keyboards (2-in-1 form factor, often backlit) from $99.
ASUS laptop keyboard replacement covers VivoBook, ZenBook, and ROG. ASUS VivoBook from $79. ASUS ZenBook keyboards are backlit slim-profile keyboards — from $99. ASUS ROG gaming keyboards (often per-key RGB) from $99.
Acer and MSI keyboard replacement: Acer Aspire keyboards from $79. Acer Nitro gaming keyboards from $89. MSI gaming laptop keyboards from $99.
Water damage keyboard service: if liquid entered the keyboard, we disassemble the chassis, remove the keyboard, and clean both the keyboard and the area underneath with isopropyl alcohol. Sticky keys from a soft drink spill may recover after cleaning. If the keyboard membrane has been corroded by the liquid, replacement is required. Assessment from $79 — we'll quote replacement only if needed.
Individual key cap replacement: if a single key cap has broken off (common with the spacebar, enter key, or shift key that take the most force), and the scissor mechanism and membrane contact underneath are intact, a replacement keycap from $10–20 saves a full keyboard replacement. We assess the mechanism at the free diagnostic.
