Dell Inspiron 3000 repair
The everyday Inspiron: 15 and 17-inch laptops for home, school and small offices.

About the Inspiron 3000
The Inspiron 3000 series is built to a price, with plastic cases and hinges that work hard over the years. The upside is that most of them are easy to open and inexpensive to repair or upgrade.
Every repair starts with a free assessment and a fixed price. Nothing is done until you approve it, and repairs carry a 3-month warranty.
Inspiron 3000 repairs
Screens
We replace cracked and faulty Inspiron 3000 screens with a panel matched to the original size, resolution and connector.
Batteries
The battery sits inside the case and is held by screws. We fit the correct part number and check that it charges and reports properly.
Keyboards and trackpads
The keyboard is fixed into the palm rest, so the two are replaced together as a top case. Trackpads are replaced separately.
Charging and power
Loose or broken DC charging sockets are replaced, and charging circuit faults are repaired on the motherboard.
Motherboard and liquid damage
No power, no display and liquid damage are repaired at component level wherever parts are available, instead of replacing the whole board.
Upgrades
Memory and storage are both accessible on most Inspiron 3000 models, so SSD and RAM upgrades are straightforward.
Sending your Inspiron 3000
Turn the laptop over. The model is printed on the base, for example "Latitude 5440" or "Inspiron 15 3520". Send us that with a description of the fault and we reply with a price, normally the same working day.
We collect by insured courier from anywhere in the UK. See how the courier service works and how to pack your laptop.
Common questions
Is an older Inspiron 3000 laptop worth repairing?
Often, yes. We tell you the price before any work starts, and if the repair would cost more than the laptop is worth, we say so.
Can you make my Inspiron 3000 laptop faster?
Usually. Where the model allows it, an SSD or memory upgrade makes the biggest difference. We check what your exact model accepts before quoting.
