What Our Customers Say
I dropped my Dell Precision 5550 with a short battery issue and needed it back the same day. iRepair Guys fixed it in under an hour and charged a fair price—much cheaper than the Apple Store. The team explained every step, and the battery now lasts all day. Marsh customers are lucky to have them nearby.
Running a design studio near the Town Centre, we rely on laptops daily. iRepair Guys came to our office, replaced the battery quickly, and had us up and running again in no time. Great service, reliable support, and the business discount helped our budget. I’d recommend them to anyone in Huddersfield.
As a student, I needed a budget-friendly fix for my Dell. iRepair Guys gave a clear quote, did the work fast, and the new battery lasts longer than before. Far better value than the Apple Store, and the Marsh shop’s staff were friendly and patient with my questions.
I mailed my Dell from Brighouse because the battery wouldn’t hold charge. The mail-in repair was smooth, with prompt updates and a fast turnaround. I didn’t have to travel into Huddersfield, and when I got the laptop back it worked perfectly.
We needed a same-day battery fix at the office. iRepair Guys collected a Dell from our Dalton site, replaced the battery, tested everything, and returned a fully working laptop the same day. Great service for professionals who can’t be without devices.
We had two Dell laptops with short battery issues. The team repaired both in one visit and offered a loyalty discount for our family accounts. The batteries now last hours longer, and we’re more productive at home and on the go.

Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
Dell Precision 5550 battery issues typically stem from wear, heat, and charging cycles. We test for battery health, verify connector integrity, and calibrate the system to ensure the power management profile matches the new cell. Our technicians follow Dell’s guidelines to avoid BIOS or firmware conflicts post-repair.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Main causes are age-related wear, deep discharge cycles, and heat exposure. Over time, lithium-ion cells lose capacity, leading to rapid drain. Regular charging habits and avoiding high heat can help extend battery life, but replacement is often the most effective and economical fix when capacity falls below usable levels.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
For battery issues on a Dell Precision 5550, replacement is usually the most cost-efficient option with minimal downtime. If the device has other critical faults or the motherboard is compromised, we’ll advise whether repair, battery replacement, or a device refresh is the best long-term solution.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
Yes. If multiple problems are identified, we provide a clear plan and quote for each repair. We can bundle handling of battery, charging port checks, and data-calibration tasks where applicable, to offer a comprehensive solution at a straightforward price, with a single point of contact.
