How work is delivered
Workshop appointments
The normal route for computers, drives and upgrade work. An appointment is required, the address is supplied after the problem has been discussed, and there is no walk-in promise.
Collection and return
May be available by arrangement where practical. Timing and any cost are agreed in advance, and universal collection is not promised.
On-site visits
Appropriate where the environment is part of the problem, such as Wi-Fi coverage and dead zones, router or mesh placement, garden-office connectivity, selected installed or connected devices, and small home-office or local-workplace connectivity.
What happens before travel
Before collection or a visit is arranged, Uptime will ask for the postcode, a description of the problem, the equipment involved and any practical access information. The likely service, starting cost, travel arrangement and any equipment requirement are discussed first.

What customers say
We recently bought a Ring doorbell and wanted it set up properly. Alistair ... came round and installed it, connected it to our wifi and set everything up on our phones. It’s been working perfectly since and was all really straightforward.
FAQs
How far outside York do you travel?
The normal service area is York and approximately ten miles around it. Nearby villages may be possible by arrangement, depending on the job and practical travel requirements.
Can I bring a computer straight to the workshop?
No. Workshop visits are by appointment after the problem has been discussed, and the address is then supplied with the appointment details.
Do you collect and return equipment?
Collection and return may be agreed where practical. Availability, timing and any cost are confirmed before the arrangement is made.
When is an on-site visit appropriate?
Visits are most useful when the property or installed environment is part of the problem, particularly Wi-Fi, connectivity, garden-office links and selected connected equipment.
Do you provide emergency or same-day call-outs?
No. Uptime York does not advertise an emergency or guaranteed same-day service. Enquiries are normally reviewed within one working day.
Can you help a small local business?
Yes, with occasional practical work within the published service scope. Uptime does not provide managed IT contracts or an outsourced helpdesk.
