The keyboard repair is usually replacing the top case of the Mac, which is generally not cheap.
As a workaround pending repair, re-map the caps lock key to another key, and place another function (such as control) on the failed caps lock key.
Or with an add-on Karabiner:
Here is the Apple procedure for cleaning a keyboard:
