 Local Cost Estimates (Nairobi / Kenya)

 

Service / Shop Approximate Cost (parts + labor)
Backlight repair (Refitec) KSh 2500
Refitec KSh 5,000 – 12,000 for LED/LCD screen repairs (this may include backlight replacements depending on damage)
refitec KSh 5,000 – 15,000 for backlight repair depending on brand & TV size

So realistically, for a typical LED TV, backlight replacement in Nairobi tends to be somewhere between KSh 2,500 on the low end (for simpler, smaller TVs, or cheaper parts) up to KSh 25,000 or more for larger TVs or premium brands/models.


 What Affects the Cost

These are the key factors that make the quotes vary:

  1. Size of TV – Larger screens need more/bigger backlight strips, more labor to disassemble and reassemble.
  2. Brand/Model – Some brands have proprietary backlights or require harder-to-find parts; parts may cost more.
  3. Quality of replacement parts – Original / OEM strips cost more; aftermarket parts are cheaper but sometimes less durable.
  4. Type of backlight technology – Edge-lit vs. full-array LED, or higher-spec LED setups.
  5. Labor / Disassembly complexity – TVs with complex frames or premium panels require more careful work, more time.
  6. Warranty or guarantee – Shops might charge more if they offer a warranty on the repair.
  7. Transport / diagnostics – If they have to come to your home, or include diagnostics, those cost extra.
