FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
My laptop still works after the spill - is it OK?
Not necessarily. Corrosion develops over hours and days. A laptop working immediately after a spill can fail days later as components corrode. Professional cleaning now prevents future failure.
Should I put it in rice?
No - rice doesn’t help and can make things worse (dust, starch residue). Don’t use a hairdryer either - it can spread liquid and cause heat damage. Just power off and get it to us quickly.
What are the chances of repair?
Success rates vary. Quick action (within 24-48 hours) significantly improves chances. Clean water spills have better outcomes than sugary drinks or coffee. We’ll give you an honest assessment.
Can you recover my data even if the laptop can't be repaired?
Usually yes. Even in severe cases, we can often extract the storage and recover data. This is included in our assessment.
