Xigox repairs business laptops for offices in Nariman Point, Fort and Churchgate, with free pickup and delivery, a written quote before any work, a ₹350 inspection fee refunded if you go ahead, and a 90-day warranty. For an office laptop the biggest cost is rarely the part. It is the working day lost without the machine, so the best approach pairs same-day repairs for common faults with a little preventive care.
Which faults appear as a business laptop ages?
A business laptop that is used daily tends to show wear in a predictable order: battery, keyboard, storage speed, cooling and connectivity. Knowing the pattern lets an office plan repairs before a fault stops someone mid-task. Indicative starting prices from our list are shown against each item, and your final quote depends on the model and the part.
- Battery fade. The laptop dies when unplugged between meetings. Replacement has an indicative range of ₹1,499 to ₹4,999. See laptop battery replacement.
- Worn keyboard and trackpad. Letters rub off, keys stick and the trackpad starts to mis-click. Keyboard replacement is an indicative ₹999 to ₹3,499.
- Slow start-up and freezing. This is typically an old mechanical drive or a nearly full SSD. A 256GB SSD upgrade has an indicative range of ₹1,499 to ₹2,499, and 512GB is ₹2,499 to ₹3,999. See laptop SSD upgrade.
- Heat and fan noise. Dust builds up in the heatsink, and the laptop throttles or shuts down in long meetings.
- Wi-Fi that drops. A loose antenna cable can cause it, and antenna and cable repair has an indicative range of ₹399 to ₹999. A Wi-Fi module upgrade is an indicative ₹999 to ₹2,499.
- Loose hinge or worn ports. Daily docking and lid-opening wear these first.
None of these is dramatic on its own, which is exactly why they pile up. A laptop with a tired battery, a sticky keyboard and a slow drive is still "working", yet it costs its user minutes every hour. Fixing two or three together at one visit often saves repeated pickups.
What preventive care keeps office laptops reliable?
A few cheap habits prevent most urgent breakdowns: periodic cleaning, planned battery replacement, tidy updates and backups on company storage. None needs special skill. The point is to turn surprise failures into scheduled jobs that happen when the laptop's user is away from their desk anyway.
- Clean the cooling system. A fan and vent clean every year or two is a sensible guideline for a laptop used daily, more often in dusty spaces.
- Plan the battery. When a battery no longer lasts through a meeting, replace it rather than wait for a swollen one.
- Update outside working hours. Schedule Windows and driver updates for the evening and weekends.
- Keep files on company storage. A laptop that holds the only copy of a client file is a risk.
- Keep a spare charger at the office. A failed adapter often looks like a dead laptop.
When does an annual maintenance contract make sense?
Firms with several laptops often find a scheduled maintenance contract easier than ad hoc repair calls. You get regular checks, one point of contact and quicker response when something fails. Pricing depends on how many machines you have and what they are, so ask for a quote. Our annual maintenance contract page and the laptop AMC guide for businesses explain how it works.
What should you list before a laptop leaves the office?
Make a list of what lives on the machine, because a reinstall removes more than files. Licences deactivate, saved logins vanish, certificates disappear and shared-drive connections break. Most hardware repairs, including batteries, keyboards, screens and fans, don't need a reinstall at all. If someone proposes one for a hardware fault, ask why.
- Licensed software. Note where the keys or accounts are for office suites, accounting packages and design or CAD tools.
- Connection details. Record VPN and email profile settings, or confirm your IT team can reissue them.
- Printer and drive mappings. Note which shared printers and network drives the laptop uses.
- File locations. Work out what exists only on this laptop, and back that up first.
- Confidential data. If the laptop holds client material, tell us when booking so we handle it appropriately and ask before any step that could touch stored data.
How do you decide between repairing, upgrading and replacing an office laptop?
The answer turns on the fault, the laptop's age and whether it still runs the software your work needs. Business-class laptops are built to be repaired, and a battery, keyboard, SSD or memory upgrade often adds years of use for a fraction of a new machine's price. Replacement makes sense when the laptop itself has become the limit.
- Repair: a worn battery, keyboard, screen, fan or port on a laptop that otherwise runs well.
- Upgrade: a laptop that works but feels slow, where more memory or an SSD fixes the complaint.
- Replace: a processor too slow for your current software, several faults arriving together, or a board repair quote that comes close to half the price of a comparable machine.
A useful test is to list what the laptop must do over the next two years. If the answer includes heavy new software or a hardware requirement it can't meet, an upgrade only delays the problem. If the answer is email, documents and video calls, a repaired laptop will often do the job. Ask for a quote on both the repair and the upgrade so you can compare them side by side.
For any role where one person's laptop holds up the whole office, such as billing or client accounts, keep a configured spare, even an older machine. It is cheap insurance, and it turns a breakdown from an emergency into an inconvenience. When you do replace, certified refurbished business laptops are an option, and we also buy old laptops.
