How Much Does a Computer Repair Cost?

Our repair prices, what you pay if it can’t be fixed, and when it’s better to replace.

In short: most computer and laptop repairs cost £40 to £150. Diagnosing the problem is free, and if the machine can’t be fixed or isn’t worth fixing, there’s no fee. Repairs take from 20 minutes to a few hours.

What most repairs cost

Most of our computer and laptop repairs cost £40 to £150. There is no charge for diagnosing the problem, and if the machine can’t be fixed, or isn’t worth fixing, you pay nothing: no fix, no fee.

We fix the machine at your home or office, or collect it, in Grimsby and the surrounding towns and villages. A repair takes anything from 20 minutes to a few hours. See computer repairs for what we fix and where we visit.

What makes one repair cost more than another

Mostly, how long it takes. Removing a virus or speeding up a slow PC is a different job from recovering files from a failing hard drive. Tell us what the machine is doing when you call and we’ll tell you what we think is wrong.

Repair or replace?

A repair is usually worth it when the machine is otherwise doing what you need. It may not be when:

  • it can’t run Windows 11, so it no longer gets regular security updates (see our Windows help);
  • the repair would cost close to the price of a new machine;
  • it was already too slow for what you use it for before it broke.

If it isn’t worth fixing, there’s no fee. We can then source a replacement, set it up and move your files across: see computers and laptops.

Could it be fixed remotely?

If the problem is in Windows or macOS rather than the hardware, we may be able to fix it without coming out, in a booked remote support session.
