A few useful answers
Before you drop by.
Do you work on custom-built gaming PCs?
Yes. Tell us about the system, the symptoms and any recent hardware or software changes. We can discuss build, stability, cooling and upgrade concerns before arranging a drop-off.
Is a drop-off request a confirmed appointment?
No. It tells us your preferred day or window. We’ll confirm a suitable arrangement before you travel. A drop-off is for leaving the device, not a promise of a while-you-wait repair.
Is troubleshooting or repair free?
There is no standard drop-off booking fee. Ask us about eligibility for standard troubleshooting; any further paid diagnosis, parts or repairs are discussed before you approve them.
Troubleshooting informationShould I bring every cable and accessory?
Bring your laptop charger. For a desktop, tell us if the fault involves a particular monitor, cable or accessory so we can advise what to include. Back up important files where possible.
