For your home
The computer that's gone slow, loud or strange
Slow laptops, pop-ups that will not go away, a new machine to set up, or files to rescue off an old one. Plain English, and we tell you the cost first.
A computer that has gone slow is usually not worn out. It is usually full — of start-up programs, browser add-ons, a drive with no space left, or something unpleasant that arrived with a download. We find out which it is before anyone suggests buying a new one, and we tell you honestly when a machine genuinely is past it.
What's included
What the job covers
- Slow machines diagnosed properly — we find the cause before recommending anything
- Virus, pop-up and browser-hijack clean-up, with a check that it is really gone
- New laptop or desktop set up and your files, email and bookmarks moved across
- Files recovered from a machine that will not start, where the drive is still readable
- Printers, scanners and the other things that stop talking to the computer for no reason
- A backup put in place so the next time is an inconvenience, not a disaster
What that gets you
The result
An honest answer
If it is worth fixing we fix it. If it is not, we say so rather than selling you parts.
Your files, moved
Photos, documents and email carried over to the new machine and checked before the old one goes.
Protection next time
A backup that runs on its own, so a dead drive costs you a weekend, not a decade of photos.
Sound familiar?
Any of these you?
- "It takes five minutes to start and then the fan screams."
- "There are pop-ups I can't get rid of and I'm scared to do banking on it."
- "I bought a new one and need everything moved over."
- "The old laptop won't turn on and all the photos are on it."
Any of those is a good reason to get in touch. Tell us what is going on and we will give you a price — and we will say so if it is not something we should take on.
