FAQ: Laptop Water Damage Repair Singapore

What does laptop water damage repair in Singapore involve?

Repair involves immediately shutting down the laptop, removing power and battery, drying, cleaning internal components such as the keyboard and motherboard, then testing and replacing any corroded parts. Quick action reduces the risk of permanent damage and lowers repair costs.

How much does it cost to repair a laptop after a spill in Singapore?

Basic cleaning and diagnostic work typically ranges from SGD $95 to $155. Costs increase if the motherboard, keyboard, or connectors are damaged. Premium laptops, like MacBooks, may be more expensive due to complex design and part availability.

Will water damage always destroy my laptop’s motherboard?

Not always. If the spill is handled promptly by cutting power, drying, and cleaning corrosion, the motherboard can often survive. Delays, corrosive liquids, or heavy water exposure increase the risk of permanent damage to major components.

Can I recover my data after my laptop got wet in Singapore?

Yes, data is often recoverable if the storage drive (HDD/SSD) hasn’t been damaged. Even with soldered storage, data extraction may still be possible if the motherboard is clean and functional.

How long does laptop water damage repair take here?

Most water damage repairs are completed within 1–3 working days depending on severity. Extensive damage or the need for parts may extend repair time to 4–5 days. Faster response after a spill helps shorten repair duration.

What are common signs that a laptop has water damage?

Typical signs include failure to power on, unexpected shutdowns, keyboard or trackpad malfunction, distorted display, flickering backlight, visible moisture under keyboard or ports, or corrosion near connectors. Immediate shutdown and professional repair are recommended.

What should I do immediately after spilling liquid on my laptop?

Shut it down right away, unplug any cables, remove the battery (if possible), blot off excess liquid gently, and tilt the laptop to drain. Do not power it back on until fully inspected and cleaned.
