One of the most common questions we get at Nanak Electronics is: "My child threw a toy at the TV and the screen is cracked. How much will it cost to fix?"
The display panel is the most expensive part of an LED TV, often costing 60-70% of the TV's original price. However, not all screen issues require a full replacement. In this guide, we'll break down the costs and help you decide whether to repair or replace.
1. Broken / Cracked Screen
If your screen has physical cracks (spiderweb pattern) or impact damage, the entire panel needs to be replaced. It cannot be "repaired."
Replacement Costs:
The cost of screen replacement varies significantly based on the brand, size, and model of your TV. Original panels for brands like Sony and Samsung are generally more expensive than generic replacements.

2. Lines on Screen (Vertical/Horizontal)
This is where you can save money! If your screen has no physical cracks but shows vertical lines, horizontal bars, or double images, this is often a bonding issue, not a broken panel.
At Nanak Electronics, we use a specialized Laser Panel Bonding Machine to fix these issues without replacing the screen.
Bonding Repair Cost:
Bonding is a highly cost-effective solution compared to screen replacement. It allows us to save your original screen. Contact us for a quote based on your TV size.
This is significantly cheaper than buying a new TV or a new screen.
3. No Display (Black Screen) but Sound is Working
If you can hear audio but the screen is pitch black, shine a flashlight on the screen. If you see a faint image, your Backlight LEDs have failed.
Backlight Replacement Cost:
Backlight replacement is one of the most common and affordable repairs. The cost depends on the number of LED strips used in your specific model.
Conclusion: Repair or Replace?
Repair if: It's a backlight issue, motherboard fault, or panel bonding issue (lines on screen). These repairs are cost-effective.
Replace if: You have a broken 32-inch or 40-inch TV and the panel cost is close to the price of a new TV. For expensive 55-inch+ Sony/Samsung TVs, panel replacement might still be worth it compared to spending a large amount on a new unit.
