Computer Repair Cost Australia — Pricing Guide
Last Updated:
This is our consolidated AUD pricing guide for the most common laptop and desktop repairs in Australia, 2026. We charge per-fault, not flat-rate — meaning a simple paste service costs $180, not $400 just because some authorised service centres round everything up. Detailed cost tables for specific services are linked below.
All prices fitted (parts + labour) with 90-day warranty. Diagnostic is free if you proceed with the repair; standalone diagnostic-only is $80.
