How does the £50 assessment work?

It covers the time spent establishing what is wrong and explaining the sensible options. If you approve the recommended work, the assessment is included in the agreed total.

Do I need an appointment?

Yes. Workshop visits are arranged after an enquiry so the right time and handover can be agreed.

Can you collect and return my computer?

Collection and return within York can be arranged as part of the agreed job, subject to location and availability.

How long does work usually take?

Routine workshop jobs are usually assessed or completed within three to five working days. Data recovery and unstable devices may take longer, and you will receive a realistic expectation after assessment.
