Armley
How we work here
Armley, LS12, sits close in on the west side of Leeds, a densely built residential part of the city with a lot of older terraced and back-to-back streets and a mix of families who have been here a long time and people renting. Two things about that shape how we work. The first is that for a lot of homes here there is one main computer, and it is doing everything: a child's schoolwork, job applications and forms, banking, bills and staying in touch, so when it goes down it is not a minor inconvenience, it is the whole household offline. The second is that money is not something anyone spends twice over, and people here are right to ask whether a machine is worth fixing before they replace it. That suits how we already work, because advice by message is free, we are honest about whether a repair is worth it, and a lot of tired old machines here have plenty of life left in them once the real fault is sorted.
We come to you across Armley and the rest of LS12, at home, day or night, Sunday to Friday. Being close to the centre does not change the deal, we still come to your door rather than expecting you to come to us, and the terraced streets are no obstacle. Many faults are sorted in the one visit at the desk or the kitchen table where the machine already lives. If the repair needs longer on the bench, we can collect it and bring it back, which helps if you do not drive. There is no walk-in shop and no counter to queue at, and the free advice by message stands whichever way the machine reaches us.

How it works
Free advice by message, a call-out quoted first, then a fixed price
- Tell us the fault, free. Send an enquiry and describe what is wrong. We will tell you what it sounds like, whether it is worth doing, and whether we can sort it over a remote link without anybody travelling. That conversation costs nothing.
- A minimum call-out, quoted first. If it needs a visit, we agree the call-out before we travel, so you know it before you commit to anything. It comes off the price if you go ahead with the repair.
- A fixed quote. Once we have seen the machine you get a clear, fixed price before any work starts. No surprises, no hourly meter running.
- We fix it, or there is no repair fee. Happy with the quote? We do the work. If we cannot fix the fault we quoted for, you do not pay for the repair.
Questions
The things people ask
Is it actually worth fixing, or should I just buy a new one?
That is exactly the question to ask first, and the honest answer depends on the fault and the machine. A slow, cluttered computer often comes back to life with a new drive, a bit more memory or a proper clean-up for far less than a replacement costs. Some faults are not worth the money, and if yours is one of them we will tell you plainly, rather than sell you a repair that does not stack up.
My child needs the laptop for school and it has stopped working. Can you help quickly?
Tell us that when you get in touch and we will be straight about whether we can turn it round in time. Where a laptop is the only one in the house and there is schoolwork riding on it, getting your files and your child's work safe is the first priority, then a fixed quote before any repair. We would rather tell you honestly what is possible than take the job and leave a child without a machine.
You are near the city centre. Do you still come out to Armley, or do I have to bring it in?
We come to you. Armley and LS12 are inside the area we cover as standard, and being close to the centre only means we are quick to reach you, not that you have to come to us. There is no walk-in shop to visit, we work at your door, and if the repair needs a longer stint on the bench we can collect the machine and bring it back.
Money is tight. What happens if you cannot fix it?
Then there is no fee for the repair. Advice by message is free, you get one fixed quote before any work starts, and if a visit is needed the call-out is agreed before we travel, so you will never be surprised by a bill, and you will never be charged for a repair that did not work. That is the whole point of no fix, no fee on the repair.
The laptop is old and slow rather than broken. Can you speed it up instead of me replacing it?
Often, yes. A lot of the machines we see in Armley are not broken, just old and clogged, and a solid-state drive, a memory upgrade or clearing out what has built up over the years can make an old laptop feel new again for a fraction of the cost of buying one. We will look at it, tell you honestly what would make a real difference, and quote before doing anything.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the fault and on your exact model, so we will not put a number on it before we have looked. Advice by message is free, then you get one fixed quote before any work starts, and if we cannot fix it you pay nothing for the repair. How we price, and why there is no tariff, is set out on our prices page.
