How we fix your Dell Vostro 1088
If only one or two keys are damaged, we can often replace the key caps and clips instead of the whole keyboard, which keeps the cost down.
When the keyboard has failed, we fit a replacement with the correct UK layout for your Dell Vostro 1088. On some laptops the keyboard is part of the top case, and we'll tell you before we start if yours is.
How long it takes
Keyboards we have in stock are usually fitted the same day.
Good to know: If you spill a drink on the keyboard, switch the laptop off straight away and turn it upside down. Don't use a hairdryer on it.

Common questions
Do you fit UK keyboard layouts?
Yes, UK layout is our standard. Tell us if you need a different layout and we'll check availability.
Can I use a USB keyboard until the repair?
Yes. A USB keyboard works fine as a stopgap if the rest of the laptop is working.
