Stop the Creak Before Your Screen Snaps

It is incredibly stressful to hear your laptop casing crack or pop every time you open the lid. Ignoring a stiff hinge can quickly lead to a shattered screen and a much more expensive repair. Sergey provides expert hinge and frame reconstruction in our Clayfield workshop to make your laptop feel solid and safe once again.

Save Your Laptop Before the Frame Snaps

A wobbly screen does not always require a costly lid assembly. Sergey personally assesses the damage to determine if the frame can be reconstructed with advanced structural adhesives.

With over 10 years of experience, he specializes in reinforcing fragile plastic mounts in-house at our Clayfield workshop. We offer a 1 to 3 day turnaround to protect your screen from further damage.

Sergey, lead technician at Fix My Laptop Clayfield workshop, Brisbane.

Common Laptop Hinge Problems

  • Screen feels loose or won’t stay in position
  • Hinges are stiff, tight, or grinding
  • Cracking sounds when opening or closing the laptop
  • Screen frame separating from the body
  • Laptop casing damaged around the hinge area

If your issue isn’t hinge-related, see our full range of laptop repair services.

How Laptop Hinge Repair Works

Sergey performs a structural inspection of the hinges and internal mounts. He adjusts the hinge tension to prevent future frame stress and uses specialized reinforcement techniques to rebuild snapped internal structures. Every repair is tested to ensure the lid opens with smooth, one-handed motion.

Repair time depends on the laptop model and the extent of the damage. We confirm this before starting any work.

MacBook Hinge Repair

MacBook hinge issues often involve damage to the hinge mounts or surrounding frame. We assess MacBook hinge problems carefully to determine whether reinforcement, frame repair, or hinge replacement is required.

When a Hinge Repair May Not Fully Resolve the Issue

  • Cracked or damaged screens caused by hinge stress
  • In some cases, internal cable damage affecting display or webcam
  • In other cases, structural damage to the laptop chassis

However, if hinge repair alone isn’t sufficient, we explain the issue clearly and outline your options before recommending further work.

How Our Laptop Repair Works

A straightforward process, explained upfront.

STEP 1
Bring It In or Call Us

Visit our Clayfield workshop or call us to discuss the issue. We’ll perform a quick initial assessment, ask a few questions, and check your device in for a professional diagnosis.

STEP 2
Diagnosis & Approval

Our technician pinpoints the exact issue and explain the repair options and costs clearly. If specific parts are required, we source them immediately. No work starts, and no costs are incurred, until you approve the quote and timeframe.

STEP 3
Repair & Collection

Once approved, we complete the repair with precision. If parts were ordered, we typically finish the job the same or next day they arrive. Every laptop is stress-tested for quality before we notify you it’s ready for pickup.

Note on Same-Day Service: We offer priority repairs based on current workload and parts. If you need it done today, please mention it when you arrive so we can check if same-day service is realistic for your specific device.
