For Parents

Kid broke the school Chromebook? Districts often charge $60–358. We repair for less. Common: screen from $39, keyboard from $29, hinge from $49, iPad screen from $59. Check with school IT first, then text model + fault.

Overheating & Battery Safety in School Fleets

School Chromebooks run 6–8 hours daily and charge overnight in carts — thermal paste degrades, fans clog, shutdowns spike. School iPads: battery swelling is a documented fire hazard. If the screen is lifting or the case is bulging, stop charging immediately.

We offer thermal paste replacement, fan service, safe swollen battery removal, charging IC repair, and batch thermal maintenance programs. See also overheating repair and iPad repair.
