Frequently Asked Questions

Some of the most frequent questions our customers have. Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Please reach out to our friendly team!

Are appointments needed to come in for repair?

Appointments are not needed to come see us! We do not want to inconvenience your schedule, our doors are open 10AM to 8PM M-F & 12-8PM Saturdays Sundays: Closed

Generally for screen replacements between 30-45 minutes! Charging port replacement between 1-1.5 hours!

The question you should be asking is – what computers don’t we service? Whether you’ve got a 7-year-old laptop that’s running slow or the newest MacBook Pro, we can more than likely fix it.

Generally you should have your computer back within 48 hours. The time for completion can vary if we have to order parts!

If you are experiencing an issue with the repair we have completed for you, bring it back by and let us know what issues you’re experiencing. All of our repairs are backed by our 1 year warranty!

We accept walk-ins anytime.  If you have an immediate need, bring your device to us right away and we will see how we can help.

There’s multiple ways to get started!  We accept walk-ins, or you can call us or fill out a repair form on the website anytime.  If you contact us via our repair form, we will be in touch as soon as possible.

We do buy back older devices and phones!  To see if your device qualifies for a buy back or trade-in, check out our buyback widget, which makes the process simple and easy, and allows you to get paid faster.

While there are no guarantees, often times a computer crash or issue may not be the hard-drive – which means your files may be just fine.  To learn more, we’d need to run diagnostics in person!  If you’re looking for data recovery services, reach out to us anytime – we can help!

If any computer program or caller is asking you to send them money – STOP. Almost always, any legitimate service won’t block you from using your computer in exchange for money, and you are more than likely being scammed. Bring your device to us, and we figure out the issue with you.

We certainly can! Not only do we fix hardware issues, but we can even help with pesky software issues such as viruses and malware. Bring your device to us, and we will see how we can help.
