Knaresborough
How we work here
Knaresborough sits next to Harrogate and the two share a run for us, so if we are out that way you are effectively on the same trip. That is worth knowing, because a smaller market town is exactly the sort of place where getting a computer looked at properly means driving somewhere and leaving it for a week. Coming to you removes both halves of that problem. It also means we see the machine in the room it actually lives in, on the actual network it has to work on, which is where a surprising number of faults turn out to be hiding.
We come out to Knaresborough, at home or at work, day or night, Sunday to Friday. It is a longer run than a job in the city, so send an enquiry first and we will tell you straight when we can get to you rather than book a slot we cannot keep. If a visit does not suit, we can arrange to collect the machine and bring it back once it is done, and a fair few faults get sorted over a secure remote link with nobody coming out at all. Advice by message is free whichever way we do it.

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 worth you coming out for one laptop?
Yes. Knaresborough and Harrogate share a run, so you are rarely a trip on your own, and even when you are, the call-out is still the same and the price is still the price. You are not being charged for our mileage either way.
The fault only happens sometimes. Is that still worth looking at?
Those are the ones most worth looking at in person. An intermittent fault is very hard to describe over the phone and very easy to see in the room, on your own network, with your own kit plugged in. That is one of the real advantages of someone coming to you rather than the machine going to a bench somewhere.
Do you cover the villages around Knaresborough?
Yes. Give us the actual village when you get in touch rather than the nearest big name, so the answer we give you about timing is a real one rather than a guess.
You are based in Leeds. Do you actually come out to Knaresborough?
Yes. Knaresborough is inside the area we cover, and being mobile is rather the point: there is no shop for you to drive to. It is a longer run than a job in Leeds, so send an enquiry, tell us the fault, and we will be straight with you about when we can be there. If a visit is not the quickest way to help, we will say so and offer to collect the machine or look at it remotely instead.
Does it cost more because I am not in Leeds?
No. Advice by message is free wherever you are, and the fixed quote covers the job, not the mileage. If a job did not stack up at the distance we would tell you before you spent anything, rather than quietly load it onto the price.
How much will the repair cost?
It depends on the fault and on your exact model, so we will not quote a number 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.
Can you help without coming out to North Yorkshire at all?
Often, yes. Software faults, slow machines, email trouble, printer and wifi setup and a lot of account lockouts can be sorted over a secure remote link while you watch. Anything physical, a screen, a battery, a drive, a liquid spill, needs the machine in front of us, either on a visit or by collecting it.
What kinds of repair do you do?
Laptop and PC repair, Mac repair, screen replacements, SSD and RAM upgrades and speed-ups, virus and malware removal, data recovery, and one-off repairs and setup for small businesses. Ongoing IT support for a business is our sister company, Dacros.
