Laptop Screen Replacement Cost in Barrackpore — What to Expect
The honest breakdown
Screen replacement has two costs: labour (fixed) and the panel (varies). Labour is ₹1,500. The panel price depends entirely on your laptop model. A basic HD panel for an Acer Aspire is ₹3,000-4,500. An FHD IPS panel for an HP Pavilion is ₹4,500-7,000. A touch panel for a premium model can be ₹8,000-15,000.
Why the panel price varies so much
Resolution (HD vs FHD vs 2K). Panel type (TN vs IPS vs OLED). Touch vs non-touch. Bezel type (slim bezel panels cost more). Refresh rate (60Hz vs 120Hz vs 144Hz). Your exact model number determines which panel fits.
How we confirm the price
We check your model number, identify the exact compatible panel, and give you a written quote. The panel is ordered only after your approval with 100% advance. No surprise bills.
What voids the warranty
The 90-day labour warranty covers the replacement work, not the panel itself. The panel carries its seller warranty. Physical damage (cracking the new screen) voids both. Liquid damage voids both.
Can I replace the screen myself?
We do not recommend it. Screen replacement involves disconnecting fragile ribbon cables, removing bezel clips without breaking them, and handling the panel without touching the display surface. A mistake costs more than the labour fee.
