Try this before you call

  • Restart the computer, as many stay on for weeks
  • Check how full your hard drive is
  • Uninstall programs you no longer use
  • Reduce the apps that launch at startup
  • Run a virus scan to rule out malware

If your computer is still crawling after these checks, a proper tune up or upgrade is the answer. Microsoft offers speed tips at support.microsoft.com/windows, and we handle the rest for you.

“A slow computer is rarely beyond help. Usually it is a tired drive, low memory or clutter, and each of those has a quick, affordable fix.”

Slow computer repair: your questions answered

Why is my computer so slow?

Usually an ageing hard drive, too little memory, malware or clutter. We diagnose the exact cause during our call-out.

Is it worth fixing or should I buy a new one?

Most slow computers are well worth fixing. An SSD (solid-state drive, a fast drive with no moving parts) or memory upgrade costs far less than a new machine and makes a big difference.

Will I lose my files?

No. Our speed fixes protect your data, and we can back it up first if any work carries risk.

Do you come to me?

Yes. Many problems are fixed on the spot; some repairs need the workshop.

Why slow computer repair is worth doing right

Slow computer repair: We find the real cause

Slowness can come from hardware or software. We diagnose properly so you fix the actual bottleneck, not a guess.

Cheaper than a new PC

A tune up, SSD or memory upgrade usually costs a fraction of a new machine and delivers a bigger everyday improvement.

Lasting results

We do not just clear a few files. We address the root cause so your computer stays fast well beyond the visit.
