Need someone to recommend a microsoft Surface repair centre?

[robk]

Having just dropped my Surface Pro 3 I now need to find somewhere to get it repaired!

 

Can anyone recommend a good service centre? Ideally midlands but I am open to suggestions. Don't really want to shell out £600 for swapped device with microsoft!

 

Regards

You've not said what's broken with it so I will assume it's just the screen you've broken - so are the screens available on eBay etc. and could you have a go at fixing the screen yourself?

I have used https://www.ipaqrepair.co.uk/ to repair a surface pro 4 broken screen. It cost around £300 if I remember correctly.

is the metal surround bent? - if so may be very difficult to repair - have had to write 2 off - it is very difficult to straighten it enough to get a new screen in. I sent one off to valutech who are reputable repairers and they couldn't do anything with it.

Worth checking before you spend out on a screen.

Yes, its screen. I don't really want to try a DIY fix here as I understand its very easy to break more than you fix if you don't know what you are doing.

It doesnt look like the frame is bend, but again thats why I am looking for a reputable repair centre to give it the best shot.

I’ve fixed many Surface 3s and 4s recently. Actually rather easy.

 

Getting the old one off isn’t too hard as it’s already broken. You just need to be careful around the cameras as the antenna board is here and can easily be ripped off with the screen.

 

Then but a screen of eBay for £100, it comes with the tape to stick it back down and hey presto you have a working Surface.

 

If your interested I can send you a link to the screens I buy off eBay as have had many from different sellers of different quality, but I have now found a seller whose price is good and is also of high quality
