Computer and laptop repair in Meanwood
Nobody in a busy household has a spare afternoon to sit in a repair shop. In Meanwood the problem with a broken laptop is rarely the fault itself, it is finding the hour to deal with it between work, the school run and everything else in the week. So we come to you, at a time you actually have: up to 7pm on weekdays, or on a Saturday. The diagnosis is free, you get one fixed quote before any work starts, and if we cannot fix it there is nothing to pay.
- No fix, no fee
- We come to you
- The diagnosis is always free
- A real person who does the work, not a call centre
Meanwood
How we work here
Meanwood sits in the inner north west of Leeds, on the LS6 and LS7 border between Headingley and Chapel Allerton, with a green, wooded valley running through it. It is an in-between place in the best sense: people who have moved on from the student streets nearby into first homes and family houses, young professionals, growing families, and plenty of households where both adults work full weeks. That is the practical problem we shaped the service around here. The fault is usually ordinary, a laptop that will not start, a machine that has slowed to a crawl, but the free hour to deal with it is not. So we work to your diary rather than ours: a visit after the working day, a Saturday appointment, or a collection arranged for a time somebody is actually in, with the machine returned the same way once it is fixed.
We come to you across Meanwood and the LS6 and LS7 streets around it, Monday to Saturday, 9am to 7pm, and those hours exist for exactly this part of Leeds. A visit booked for after you are home from work, or on a Saturday, is a normal appointment for us, not a favour. If nobody is in during the week, we arrange a collection for a time somebody is, do the work on the bench, and return the machine working. Many faults are sorted in a single visit at the kitchen table. There is no walk-in shop and no queue, and the diagnosis is free whichever way the machine reaches us.

Some faults do not need us at the door. We connect over a secure link, with your say-so, and fix it while you watch, often the same hour. Free look first.

A machine down, email stuck, Wi-Fi dropping, or a new starter with nothing to work on? We come to your premises, fix it, and quote before we touch anything.

No picture, no power, no sound, or a smart TV that will not set up? We fault-find for free and tell you straight whether it is worth fixing.
Gaming PC repair & builds
Will not post, overheating, crashing under load, or a GPU acting up? We find the real fault for free, and we build honest custom machines to a brief.
Slow computer speed-up
Takes an age to start, spinning wheel at everything, freezing up? We measure what is actually slowing it before you spend a penny, then say what a fix will really achieve.
Liquid & water damage
A spill on a laptop or keyboard? Get it off power now and ring us. This is the one repair nobody can promise, and we will not pretend otherwise.
Electricals & appliances
Small plug-in electricals and the smart, connected side of modern appliances. We fault-find honestly, fix what is worth fixing, and say plainly when it needs a registered trade.
Wi-Fi & home network
Dead spots, drops out, slow in one room? We measure where the signal actually goes, sort the router and the setup, and say honestly when a room needs more kit.
Printer setup & fixes
Offline, will not connect, will not print, or scanning has stopped? We get the printer talking to every device that needs it, where you actually use it.
Email help & setup
Email stopped sending or arriving, a new phone that will not connect, or a mailbox that is full? We sort it across every device you read it on.
New computer setup & data transfer
A new PC or laptop to set up and everything to move off the old one? We carry your files, photos, email and bookmarks across and strip the bloatware.
Smart home & device setup
Alexa, Google, smart bulbs and plugs, cameras and video doorbells, all onto the wifi, into the apps and working together, set up properly the first time.
Password & account recovery
Locked out of Windows, your Mac, your email or an account? We help you prove it is yours and get you back in safely, the proper way.

Questions
The things people ask
We are both at work all week. Can you come in the evening or on a Saturday?
Yes. We work Monday to Saturday, 9am to 7pm, so a visit after the working day or on a Saturday is a normal booking for us, not a special arrangement. Tell us when you ring which times you can actually do and we will fit the appointment to them.
Nobody is home during the day. How does the repair actually happen?
We arrange it around when somebody is. That can be a later weekday visit or a Saturday one, or we can collect the machine at a time that suits you, do the work on the bench, and return it once it is fixed. You do not need to take a day off work to get a laptop repaired.
There is one laptop in the house, everybody needs it, and the diary is full. How quickly can you look at it?
Ring us and describe what it is doing, and we will be honest on the phone about what the fault sounds like and how quickly it can be dealt with. A lot of everyday faults are sorted in a single visit, and if the machine genuinely needs longer on the bench we will say so plainly before you decide anything, rather than leave the household guessing.
Do we both need to be in when you visit?
No. One adult who can tell us what the machine has been doing and agree the quote is plenty. If even that is difficult in your week, describe the fault on the phone, hand the machine over at the door, and we will call you with the diagnosis and the fixed quote before any work starts.
We are right on the edge of Headingley. Are we still in your patch?
Yes. Meanwood, the LS6 and LS7 streets around it and the neighbouring areas are all covered, and no line on the map changes anything. Wherever the border technically falls, we come to the door just the same.
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. The diagnosis is free, then you get one fixed quote before any work starts, and if we cannot fix it you pay nothing.
