Expert Advice & Tips
Common causes of this issue:
- Liquid intrusion from spills, submersion, or high humidity can damage the Travelmate X5 motherboard and keyboard.
- Incomplete drying after a spill leaves moisture that corrodes connectors and ICs.
- Salt or mineral residues accelerate corrosion in internal traces.
- Pressing or attempting to use a damaged device can worsen short circuits.
- Poor sealing around ports can allow moisture to enter during rain or sweat.
Prevention tips:
- Use a protective sleeve and keep liquids away from the keyboard area.
- If liquid spills, power off immediately and seek professional help within 2 hours.
- Don’t use the device while still damp; allow proper ventilation to dry.
- Regularly back up data so you’re protected if a repair is needed.
- Store in a cool, dry place to minimise condensation.
When to repair vs replace:
Short intro: If the Travelmate X5 shows persistent boot issues after water exposure, repair is usually viable; if the motherboard has extensive damage or recurring faults, replacement may be wiser.
- Repair if costs are under the price of a replacement and data can be salvaged.
- Repair if key components (screen, keyboard, ports) can be restored and testing shows stability.
- Replace if battery swelling, processor degradation, or multiple failed boards occur.
- Replace if water damage recurs after repair and reliability is compromised.
What to look for in a quality repair service:
- Clear upfront diagnostics and a written quote before work begins.
- Valid warranties (12-24 months) and data protection promises.
- Licensed technicians with experience in Travelmate X5 repairs.
- Transparent testing results and demonstration of function.
- Local availability and flexible service options (walk-in, mobile, mail-in).
Red flags to avoid:
- Vague quotes or hidden fees; lack of written estimates.
- No proof of warranty or unclear coverage.
- Poor communication or delays in updates.
- Use of generic parts or unverified suppliers.
- No data protection or proof of safe handling.
Maintenance guidance after repair:
- Avoid liquids near the keyboard; use a keyboard cover for spills.
- Regularly back up important data and perform system updates.
- Keep the device dry and clean; store in a protective case.
- Monitor battery health and seek warranty-approved checks if swelling occurs.
What Our Customers Say
I spilled coffee on my Travelmate X5 near Marsh and thought I’d lost everything. iRepair Guys fixed the water damage the same day at their Marsh shop. They diagnosed quickly, replaced the affected parts, and the laptop boots up in seconds now. The price was fair, and the 12‑month warranty gave real peace of mind. Great service near Marsh.
Running a design studio on Market St in Town Centre, I needed quick repair for my Travelmate X5 after it was splashed. The team came to our office, completed the fix in under 2 hours, and offered a business discount. No downtime, no fuss—much easier than visiting the Apple Store and far quicker.
As a student in Almondbury, I dreaded the Apple Store prices. iRepair Guys fixed my Travelmate X5 after water damage, in a fraction of the time, and with a genuine student discount. It felt honest and quick compared with the far pricier options, and the repair held up in Lindley and beyond.
I sent my Travelmate X5 to be repaired via mail-in after a spill in Brighouse. Turnaround was superb—the team kept me updated, repaired the board, and tested every function. It arrived back just as promised, working perfectly from Moldgreen to Dalton. Very impressed with the mail-in success rate.
We rely on Travelmate X5 for client meetings in the Town Centre. iRepair Guys offered same-day service and even repaired devices at our office on Lockwood for convenience. The repair was thorough, the diagnostic clear, and the staff were friendly. It’s the fastest, most reliable mobile service around.
Multiple family devices got water damage around Birkby and Dalton. We used iRepair Guys again because of their loyalty discount and consistent quality. Travelmate X5 recovered, plus a second laptop and tablet tested, all with solid results. It’s reassuring to know a local repair shop treats families well.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing & Value
Q:
How much does this repair cost?
Our pricing for water damage repairs is transparent and varies by device condition, parts, and labour. For the Travelmate X5 in water-damage scenarios, we provide a clear, written quote before any work begins. There are no hidden fees, and our pricing is designed to be competitive with Apple Store alternatives while using higher-quality parts and faster turnaround. We also offer a 12-month warranty by default, giving you ongoing protection without surprise costs.
Q:
Why cheaper than Apple?
Apple Store pricing includes premium overhead and scheduled maintenance. iRepair Guys operates with leaner processes, high-quality but cost-efficient parts, and specialist local technicians who focus on laptops like the Travelmate X5. This allows us to provide quicker diagnostics, on-site or same-day service, and a robust 12-month warranty, typically at a lower total cost while maintaining high reliability and performance.
Q:
Any hidden costs?
No. We publish all potential costs upfront in the quote. Most charges are for parts and labour directly tied to the work performed. If additional issues are found during repair, we call you first for approval before proceeding. Our transparency extends to the warranty with clear terms and a simple claim process, so you’re never left unsure about what you’re paying for.
Q:
Payment plans or discounts?
We offer student and business discounts where applicable, plus a loyalty programme for returning customers around Marsh, Town Centre, and surrounding areas. Payment is accepted on-site or via our secure channel, and our quotes always reflect any eligible discounts. Our aim is to keep you mobile and productive without overpaying for repairs.
Quality & Process
Q:
Parts quality?
We source OEM-grade and high-quality compatible parts for travel laptops like the Travelmate X5. Every component undergoes rigorous testing before installation, and each repair includes post-repair functional tests to ensure everything from the keyboard to the display and battery performs correctly. Our team prioritises preserving original functionality and data integrity, with a focus on long-term reliability.
Q:
How long does repair take?
Water damage repairs are typically completed on the same day. In many cases we finish within 2 hours of diagnosis, depending on parts availability and the extent of damage. If additional components are required, we’ll confirm an updated timeline before proceeding. Our goal is to get you back up and running as quickly as possible without compromising quality.
Q:
Will features work after? (Face ID, etc.)
We ensure that essential features remain functional after repair. For Travelmate X5 devices, this means careful handling of sensors, keyboards, and control surfaces, plus any required firmware updates. We test booting, keyboard input, trackpad responsiveness, and connectivity to guarantee a fully usable laptop post-repair, with data integrity preserved throughout the process.
Q:
Success rate?
We maintain a high success rate, backed by our 8+ years of experience and a 4.9 average customer rating. Our quality control includes multiple diagnostic tests and a final verification pass. With our 12-month warranty and continuous staff training, you can expect dependable, repeatable results in most cases.

Warranty
Q:

We stand by our parts and processes, and if a fault recurs, we’ll investigate promptly and remedy it at no additional cost, subject to our warranty terms.
Q:
If something goes wrong?
If the repaired Travelmate X5 experiences issues related to the repair, contact us and we’ll arrange a diagnostic without charge in most cases. We’ll identify the root cause, explain options, and correct the issue quickly. Our aim is to resolve problems efficiently, keeping you informed every step of the way with a clear path to resolution.
Q:

Most repairs with iRepair Guys do not void your manufacturer warranty.

Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
For Travelmate X5 water damage, we perform a full diagnostic to assess motherboard viability, corrosion from moisture, sleep/boot issues, and display integrity. Our technicians carefully dry components, replace compromised boards or connectors, then run firmware and boot tests. We also verify peripheral functionality and data integrity to ensure you can resume work with minimal downtime.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Water damage on laptops is typically caused by spills, high humidity, or accidental immersion. Liquid can cause corrosion, short circuits, and failure of power management. Preventative measures include using a spill-proof setup and immediate power-downs. Our rapid diagnostics help identify the affected areas and mitigate further damage before repair work begins.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
We assess on a case-by-case basis. If the Travelmate X5 has extensive corrosion or chronic failures, replacing a motherboard or other core components may be more cost-effective long-term. For many water-damaged devices, a repair is feasible with a reliable 12-month warranty. Our team will present all viable options with transparent costs before proceeding.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
If multiple issues are identified—such as keyboard faults, display flicker, and charging problems—we offer bundled repair discounts. Our technicians prioritise coordinating parts and labour efficiently while ensuring thorough testing. This approach minimises downtime and maximises the likelihood that your Travelmate X5 operates like new, with all features functioning as expected.
