Common Laptop Keyboard Issues
Laptop keyboards can develop problems over time due to regular use or accidental damage. Below are some of the most common issues users face:
Worn Out Keys
Over time, keys may lose responsiveness. Some may fail to register when pressed, while others may stay “stuck,” continuing to type even when not touched. If multiple keys are affected, a full keyboard replacement is usually required.Missing or Loose Keycaps
Keycaps can become loose or go missing, making typing uncomfortable or difficult. This is typically a result of wear and tear or accidental impact.Water Spillage on the Keyboard
Spilling liquids on the keyboard can cause short circuits or sticky keys. If not cleaned or repaired quickly, it may lead to permanent damage.Non Responsive Keys or Repeating Characters
Some keys may stop responding entirely, while others might continuously repeat when pressed once. This could be due to physical damage or internal connection issues.Sticky or Jammed Keys
Dust, debris, or spills can cause keys to become sticky or jammed, making them hard to press or slow to return to position.Keys Stuck Typing Automatically
In some cases, stuck keys may behave as if they’re constantly being pressed, causing continuous typing without user input. This often leads to error messages or usability issues.
If you’re experiencing any of the issues above, professional repair or full keyboard replacement may be necessary to restore proper function.
How Much Does Laptop Keyboard Repair Cost?

Had a problem with my laptop and needed to replace my battery. The process and repair was fast and smooth, no complications, straightforward and honest technician. Price is very fair and cheaper than those official Lenovo repair shops but still original and good quality parts. Definitely recommend and will come again for future assistance 😀

Ming was really cool. My PC had a problem with the video out and Ming troubleshooted it on the spot. Told me what the problem was and didn’t charge me anything because it was a simple fix.

I recently upgraded my laptop from an HDD to an SSD, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. The upgrade was handled professionally, completed within a reasonable timeframe, and the overall service was exceptional. I highly recommend it!

Had a great experience with Volta PC Repair. They were honest about what needed fixing, didn’t try to upsell anything, and the price was very fair. Customer service was excellent, very friendly, patient, and made everything easy to understand. It’s refreshing to find a place you can actually trust. Highly recommended!

5 minutes walk from Tai Seng MRT. Long story short I replaced my old laptop wifi card but messed up the installation as I forced the antennae pin onto the card itself and found this laptop repair shop to replace my laptop wifi card.
Walked in at around 5.30pm, expected it’ll take 2 days repair as I came on Tuesday and they close every Wednesday but service was fast and it was done in an hour.
Great service (didn’t get his name) and my laptop can connect to wifi and bluetooth! Superb!

Great location. About 5 minutes walk from Tai Seng MRT. Plenty of street parking around the building but if not available, there’s ample paid parking withiin the building compound. Counter stuff was efficient and professional. Sent in a Macbook Pro for a battery change and it was ready in 48hrs. Cost appears to be quite reasonable.

This has been an awesome experience. Ming from Volta has been extremely responsive and to the point, about what can or cannot be done (Unfortunately my laptop truly died with a burnt mainboard, and will cost more than buying a new laptop should i want to force a repair). Assessment was quick, and Company does not hardsell and does not charge any assessment fee if no repair is proceeded with. They managed to recover my data for a nominal fee which i was more than glad to proceed with. Backup/SDD transfer took just about 1 hour. Dont hesitate, just call them.

Had my desktop sent here as it stopped working during an intense gaming session.
Ken is very passionate about computer parts/ installation/ overall look for the desktop and willing to share his expertise. He is very patient at explaining the issues and what other potential troubles to look out for after the fix.
Got together some parts (power supply, GPU and fan cooler) myself and Ken installed them within a day at a cost of $95.
He also looked through the temperature of the CPU and GPU, cleaned up the interior, and updated my motherboard, graphics card and Windows software.
A huge thanks for helping and teaching me!

2nd time returning to repair my laptop, 1st time was in 2021 for a software issue, and this time for a hinge repair, at both times, the staff at the store was always knowledgeable and professional, giving us a peace of mind knowing that my laptop will be in good hands.
free diagnosis followed by options of repair for you to select, price is reasonable as well, 10/10 would recommend.

Technician is honest, patient in explaining details in layman terms and also very approachable. Doesn’t hardsell or upsell services if he thinks you don’t need it. Turnaround time was decent as well. Highly recommend!

I cracked my laptop screen on Friday and went to contact Volta PC to ask for their price and whether it can be fixed. The next day l went to their shop and luckily the screen can be replaced and it is done within a few hours. I collected back my laptop on that day itself too. Thank you for the excellent service 😄

The JE outlet has a Tech named Ken. Very knowledgeable and helpful as well. His customer service skills is on par with those in retail. The company itself is very professional and their cost does not burn a hole in your pocket. They are your friendly neighbourhood PC repair shop. Kudos!

Went to fix my Lenovo Laptop, diagnosed with a SSD issue. Great, got fixed.
Not even one month later, entire laptop fails to boot.
Take it to a friend who knows about parts, he opens and the motherboard is fried. Thermal paste is all over the place, overheated the motherboards chips. Costed over $200 in repairs for this.
Image attached is how it looks from a friend who got a repasting here.
Do not recommend, overpriced and ruins your stuff.

Ken took the time to harmonize expectations on results of cleaning. Did not hard sell / up sell. Understood the problem and suggested specific and targeted solutions. Awesome experience!
Went back to Ken a few weeks later due to a recurring problem while gaming, Ken spent the time to patiently explain and engage on what the possibilities are and the solution that he deeply researched. After a few trials and error tuning parameters, it works great!!!
