- Not all problems can be resolved at your address โ this service is offered on discretion, and our team will advise you if we have to take a device back to our office for repair. For a lot of computer problems, they will take significant time and require access to our specialist tools and software, so must be done at our store, and cannot be completed whilst you wait.
- We charge an hourly rate, with the minimum charge being one hour.
- Payment on completion.
- We do not offer computer lessons – only support with IT issues, such as your printer not working, computer not connecting to internet, etc.
Under the microscope... see what we see!
Alongside are some photos of our latest jobs - all of which were successfully repaired.
Possessing tools like a microscope and thermal camera allow us to conduct repairs to a standard that many shops are not able to, and in the case of Apple Macs - allows us to repair your existing logic board, saving you hundreds of pounds as well as your precious data.
This is the second time we have now had a customer bring in an iMac repaired by the same competitor - they used hot glue instead of the proper adhesive around the display, and they used an off-brand SSD that failed in less than a year. All the vents are also clogged with dust and weren`t cleaned.
It is unacceptable to fit such low-quality parts for customers who could then lose their data as a result, and use hot glue on such a precisely designed machine.

This Mac was brought in for liquid damage repair. First things first, lets blow out the decades worth of dust clogging up those fans, and replace the thermal paste.

We repaired a PS5 Slim today for a replacement HDMI port. The connector was really badly damaged - nevertheless, we managed to replace it and get this console back up and running. #ps5 #ps5slim

Our laminar flow hood filters the surrounding air to such a degree that it can be used for forensic DNA analysis! This allows us to refurbish MacBook screens to the highest standard, without letting in dust from ambient surroundings. #macbookrepair

This has to be some of the worst corrosion weโve had this year - itโs not looking great for this customer, but that hasnโt stopped us yet!

Another shop fixed this iMac before and used hot glue/silicone to reattach the screen, not genuine Apple adhesive strips!
When picking a shop to repair your Apple product, make sure they specialise in Apple repairs so they donโt do a bodge job like this! The official adhesive is specially designed and cut, so that it holds the display securely, whilst allowing the iMac to be opened again for service.

Another MacBook Air M2 screen is successfully repaired. This one suffered from liquid damage, so we replaced the backlight sheets and LCD, and it now looks as good as new. #MacBookRepair #RightToRepair #MacScreenRepair #Bournemouth

This USB C port was completely ripped off when the laptop was dropped while charging. The customer thought it was a write-off and time to get another one. After rebuilding the tracks on the motherboard, and soldering on a new port, its as good as new and lives to see another day. #soldering #righttorepair

This PS5 came in due to randomly turning off. Like many we have seen, in some cases, standing up the console causes the liquid metal to drip down over time, and cause air gaps between the processor and heatsink. Another easy fix for the bits team. #repair #bournemouth

This PS5 came in for a flickering screen. On this occasion, the HDMI port was OK, but the motherboard was damaged, and the tracks to the port were all ripped off.
Thanks to our #Amscope #microscope we are able to repair these fine tracks that are under 1mm in width each!

Woops! A customer unfortunately spilled paint onto his MacBook whilst decorating.
Don`t worry, after logic board repair under a microscope, and a specialist ultrasonic clean, it was back up and running in no time!

This MacBook Pro 2012 model had a cup of water spilled on it, and the customer kept using it causing severe corrosion.
Despite being classed as a `vintage` model this MacBook was cleaned and fixed up in no time and back in the customer`s hands ๐

This is by far the worst MacBook we`ve ever seen - poor thing! It was run over by a car and left outdoors in severe rain after the customer lost it.
Challenge accepted.
