I spilled a little coffee on my HP 255 G8 and the battery started swelling. iRepair Guys fixed it the same day, replacing the battery in under two hours. The price was transparent, the work meticulous, and the battery now lasts like new. The Marsh shop on Westbourne Road is a lifesaver for quick fixes.
We rely on laptops for staff in the Town Centre offices, and iRepair Guys delivered a fast, reliable mobile service. Battery replacements for our HP 255 G8s were completed on-site with no downtime. The team offered a clear business discount and a solid warranty that beats many Apple Store terms.
As a student, I needed a quick fix without breaking the bank. The battery on my HP 255 G8 felt old, but the replacement was affordable and completed during a lunch break. Compared to Apple, there was no anxiety about price or hidden costs, and the student discount helped a lot.
I mailed my HP 255 G8 for a battery replacement and was impressed with the smooth turnaround. The return shipping was quick, the testing thorough, and the battery holds charge well. It’s refreshing to have a reliable mail-in option that doesn’t compromise on quality.

Q:
Will features work after? (Power management, etc.)

Warranty
Q:
What warranty?
We provide a 12-month warranty on HP 255 G8 battery replacements, covering faults in materials or workmanship. Our warranty includes post-repair performance tests and battery health checks, ensuring you can rely on the replacement for the long term. Some parts may carry extended warranties depending on supplier terms.
Q:
If something goes wrong?
If a fault arises within the warranty period, simply contact us. We’ll diagnose at no charge and re-repair or replace the battery as needed, typically within 24–48 hours. We stand behind our work with our QA process and will make it right promptly.
Q:
Affect manufacturer warranty?
Independent repairs do not automatically void your HP manufacturer warranty. We only use approved parts and proper procedures. If your device is still under HP warranty for non-replaceable components, contact HP about your coverage to be safe. We’ll provide documentation of parts used to assist your claim.
Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
The HP 255 G8 uses a Lithium-Ion battery with a finite cycle life. Replacing it requires careful handling, proper ESD protection, and calibrated software checks to ensure the battery reports correct capacity. Our technicians perform a full test, including charge/discharge cycles, thermal checks, and safety verifications to prevent overheating or unexpected shutdowns.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Most battery faults arise from aging cells, overuse cycles, rapid charging, and heat exposure. A swollen battery can damage the chassis or connectors and poses a safety risk. Regular calibration and proper power management help extend battery life, but replacement is often the safest fix for HP 255 G8 laptops.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
For most HP 255 G8 battery faults, replacement is the most cost-effective option that restores full functionality. Repairs that reuse old cells can be unreliable. We prioritise safely replacing the battery with validated parts and performing post-replacement tests to confirm performance before returning the device to you.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
If you have multiple issues across devices, we offer multi-issue discounts. For example, replacing batteries on several HP laptops plus a separate device issue can qualify for a discount on the total labour. We assess each fault, provide a single quote, and perform all repairs with the same high standard.
