It's usually very easy to replace a laptop screen. Probably better off getting a replacement yourself. Literally disconnect and unscrew the broken one; screw in and connect the new one. You can get replacement parts online.

Just be careful if you're doing it yourself.
Laptop screens have an inverter between the screen and the power supply. This can hold a charge for a while after being unplugged/battery removed, which could give you a nasty shock.
Look for videos on Youtube of someone replacing the screen on the same model as yours to familiarise yourself with the process.

It's also a good way to find out how easy it is to break the clips on any bezel you have to remove. (It's pretty easy)
