BEFORE YOU BOOK
Laptop & PC repair questions
How much will my laptop or PC repair cost?
The cost depends on the model, fault and parts required. Where the fault needs investigation, a £25 diagnostic assessment applies and is deducted from the repair total if you proceed. If the repair is confidently confirmed at drop-off, no diagnostic fee is added. Online prices are indicative and subject to changes in parts costs; we confirm your quote before repair work begins.
How long will the repair take?
The timescale depends on diagnosis, the repair and parts availability. We give you an expected turnaround once we have assessed the device. Tell us if you have a deadline when arranging your visit.
Should I back up my files first?
If your computer works normally enough to make a backup, do so before bringing it in. Tell us about important files without a backup, especially if the drive is failing or the computer will not start. We discuss any work that could affect your data before proceeding.
What should I bring with my computer?
For a laptop, bring its charger and tell us the make, model and symptoms. For a desktop or all-in-one, contact us first so we can advise which cables or accessories are needed. Do not send passwords through the booking form; we will explain any access needed for testing.
Is it worth repairing or upgrading an older PC?
We compare the fault, likely repair cost and available upgrade options with how you use the computer. A compatible SSD or memory upgrade can be useful, but the best choice depends on the condition and capabilities of your system.
Can you repair gaming PCs and custom-built systems?
Yes, we assess gaming PCs and custom-built desktops. Share the specifications if you have them, the symptoms and any recent hardware changes so we can plan the assessment.
Do you also repair MacBooks and iMacs?
Yes. Visit our MacBook & iMac Repairs page for Apple computer repair options.
What warranty is included?
Repairs include a three-month warranty, subject to terms. We explain the coverage for the agreed repair when you book.
