How it works
- 1Get in touch
Ring us on 01905 673738, or drop the machine round to our shop in Worcester. Tell us what it is doing in your own words, you don’t need the technical terms. If you would rather we came to you in Redditch, ring with your address and we will tell you whether we can.
- 2We diagnose it properly
We find out what is actually wrong rather than guessing. If we cannot work out what the problem is, we will not charge you anything.
- 3We quote before we start
You will know the cost up front. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will say so rather than take your money for a machine that will fail again in three months.

No pressure and no obligation. If you would rather not go ahead, that is absolutely fine.
What it costs
Our prices start from as little as £35 for a simple fix. Anything bigger is quoted before we begin, so there are no surprises.

Do I need an appointment?
No appointment is needed, though a quick call means we can have time ready for you.
How long will it take?
We always aim to get things sorted as soon as possible, often there and then or within one working day.
Will I lose my files?
Almost never. We take care to preserve your data, and if a drive is failing we will talk to you about recovery before we do anything that risks it.
Is my old computer worth repairing?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. A lot of old and slow machines just need a solid-state drive and more memory to feel new again. If it is not worth fixing we will tell you honestly.
