What to do if you spill liquid on your laptop
Spilling liquid on your laptop can be a nerve-wracking experience, but there are a few things you can do to minimize the damage. First, turn off your laptop immediately and unplug it from any power source. If your laptop has a removable battery, remove it as well. This will help prevent any short circuits that can cause further damage. Next, gently dry off any visible liquid with a clean cloth or paper towel. Avoid using a hair dryer or any other source of heat, as this can cause the liquid to spread and damage the internal components of your laptop.
After drying off any visible liquid, leave your laptop to air dry for at least 24 hours in a dry and cool area. Do not attempt to turn on your laptop during this time, as it can cause further damage. You can also place your laptop upside down on a towel or cloth to allow any remaining liquid to drain out. If you spilled a sugary or sticky liquid, you may want to consider taking your laptop to a professional for cleaning, as these types of liquids can cause more damage and are more difficult to clean. Finally, if your laptop is still not working after it has dried out, you may need to take it to a professional for repair or replacement of any damaged components.
Common computer parts affected by liquid damage
When liquid is spilled on a laptop, it can damage various components, including the keyboard, trackpad, motherboard, and other internal parts. The keyboard is often the most commonly affected part, as liquid can seep into the keys and cause them to malfunction or become unresponsive. If the liquid is not dried out immediately, it can cause the keyboard to rust and corrode, leading to permanent damage. The trackpad is also commonly affected, as liquid can seep into the surface and damage the underlying sensors. This can cause the trackpad to stop working or become unresponsive.
The motherboard is another component that can be affected by liquid damage. If liquid comes into contact with the motherboard, it can cause a short circuit that can damage the internal components and render the laptop unusable. This can be particularly problematic if the liquid is sugary or sticky, as it can cause more damage and is more difficult to clean. Other internal parts that can be affected by liquid damage include the hard drive, which can be damaged if liquid seeps into the enclosure and causes the disk to corrode, and the battery, which can be damaged if the liquid comes into contact with the terminals. Overall, it’s important to take immediate action if you spill liquid on your laptop to minimize the damage and prevent any permanent issues.
How much does it cost to fix a laptop that has water damages?

How long does it take to fix a water damaged laptop?
The initial inspection is done within 15 minutes. After you’ve approved our quote, we will commence work immediately. We keep common spare parts to complete most services on the same day. If a part is out of stock, it will need to be ordered which takes 2-5 business days (standard postage) or 1-2 business days (express postage) to arrive.
Because water damages are unpredictable, turn-around time varies and there is not standard fixed time. Our computer technician will advise you of turn-around time after checking your computer, part availability at our store and at our suppliers. Keeping a regular backup of your data also helps reduce turn-around time.
