USB-C Laptop Charging Port Repair
Many modern laptops use USB-C connectors soldered directly to the motherboard. Replacing these ports requires specialist board-level soldering equipment and experience.
Where severe physical damage has ripped or destroyed motherboard tracks or solder pads, an additional £30 track-repair charge may apply.
Charging Port or Motherboard Fault?
Not every charging problem is caused by the socket. Charging ICs, MOSFETs and other motherboard power circuitry can also prevent a laptop from charging correctly.
If the connector is working correctly and testing identifies a board-level fault, component-level motherboard repair may be required.

What is the £30 USB-C track repair charge?
If physical damage has ripped solder pads or electrical tracks from the motherboard, additional micro-soldering work may be necessary to reconstruct the damaged connections. Where required, this costs an additional £30.
