// How it works

Most computer problems have a known fix and a fair price. You should know both before you hand over your machine. Every common job below has a flat price, and you approve the quote before any work starts.

// Our promises

Quote first
Nothing beyond the diagnostic happens until you approve the price.
Back up first
Keep a current backup. We'll offer one before any work that touches your data.
Your data stays yours
We open only what the repair needs and never keep copies of your files.
90-day labor warranty
If the same fault comes back because of our work, the fix is free. Parts carry the maker's warranty.

// What we don't do

Phones and tablets
We work on desktops and laptops only.
Board-level repair
No micro-soldering. If a board has failed, we'll quote a replacement instead.
Failed-drive recovery
We recover deleted files and files from drives that still spin up. Drives that click or aren't detected need a clean-room lab, and we'll refer you to one.
Used PCs for sale
We don't stock or resell hardware. Build parts are bought for you at retail cost.
