How to get your laptop picked up for repair
Free Assessment
When we receive your laptop we assess it for damage. We then proceed to call you and discuss the repair options that we can offer to you.
Free Delivery
Upon completion of the repair your laptop will be soft packed and sent on a return courier to you.
Damaged Screens
When your screen is smashed you need it changed quickly. We can do this for you. We provide an efficient turn around time and can even do them while you wait.
DC Power Jack Replacement
DC power jacks become damaged easily. Usually this is caused when the power cable is tripped on. Laptops that do not charge are no use at all. We can replace the jack and have your laptop charging in no time.
Solid State Drive Upgrades
Replacing a conventional spinning hard drive (HDD) with a Solid State drive (SSD) has a dramatic effect on the laptops performance. We have run many before and after tests. What we observe is a laptop goes from starting in one to two minutes to starting in less than 15 seconds.
Virus/Spyware Removal
Sometimes computers get infected. Once that happens the laptop does not have your trust anymore. We specialise in keeping your data safe. This often involves us backing up you important data and reloading your machine.
Water Damage
Laptops and liquids do not go well together. At the least it usually means the keyboard needs replacing. If the liquid amount is large sometimes it can mean a main board replacement. We can organise the parts and the efficient repair of the device.
Installing Windows
When a laptop becomes unstable it is time to back it up and reload it. We wipe and reload Microsoft Windows on many laptops. This is usually done in conjunction with a Solid State Drive upgrade. For you as a customer it gives you peace of mind that the laptop is clean and ready to hold your valuable data.
