Services
Computer Repairs
We diagnose and fix hardware and software issues for Windows PCs and Apple Macs, including screen replacements, motherboard repairs, and virus removal. Our technicians handle accidental damage, system crashes, and performance problems. Clients benefit from on-site repairs to minimise downtime, with options for off-site fixes when required.
Remote Support
Our remote assistance service resolves software issues, security updates, and configuration problems without requiring a visit. Available for domestic and business users at competitive rates. We ensure secure connections and clear guidance throughout the process, with upfront pricing for 15-minute increments.
Data Recovery
Specialists in retrieving lost files from damaged drives, including recovery after liquid spills or physical trauma. We use advanced tools to salvage documents, photos, and critical business data. Most cases allow data extraction even if devices appear unrepairable, with secure handling protocols.
Network Setup
Installation and management of business networks, including firewalls, servers, and wireless systems. We optimise connectivity for offices and homes, ensuring secure, reliable access across devices. Services include pre-move planning, equipment sourcing, and post-installation support for seamless operations.
SSD Upgrades
Upgrade slow computers with solid-state drives for faster boot times and improved performance. We fit SSDs to both Windows and Mac systems, cloning existing data to ensure continuity. Starting from 120, this service extends device lifespan cost-effectively compared to buying new hardware.
