Slow Laptop At Home Or Work? Start With This Practical Checklist
A sluggish laptop is usually a combination of storage, heat, startup apps, and age rather than one single problem.

Claygate is a village in every sense — a green, a Parade of independent shops, and a station that empties toward Waterloo each morning — and most of our call-outs are professionals and home workers who would rather not hand an expensive machine across a shop counter. Our engineer comes to you for laptop & PC repair, works in front of you, and takes on cracked screens, laptops that won't power on, keyboard spills and failing hard drives on the spot where possible.
We cover Claygate and the surrounding Elmbridge streets toward Esher, Hinchley Wood and Oxshott on the same basis, with the price agreed before we start and no callout charge.
Every laptop repair begins with a free diagnosis. Our engineer comes to your home or office anywhere in Greater London, works out exactly what has failed — a screen, a battery, a charging port, a drive or something on the motherboard — and gives you a fixed price before any work starts. If the laptop is not worth repairing, we will tell you straight.
Most laptop repairs are done on-site while you wait: screen replacements, keyboard and battery swaps, SSD and RAM upgrades, and Windows or software fixes. Around seven in ten jobs are finished in a single visit, so in most cases you keep your laptop the same day rather than losing it for a week.
This is our dedicated laptop & PC repair page for Claygate. For the full picture of everything we repair here, see our Claygate repair page, or our London-wide Laptop Repair service.
Across Claygate, the laptop & PC repair calls we get most often involve cracked screens, laptops that won't power on, keyboard spills and failing hard drives — though we are called out for plenty more besides.
Claygate's home-working lean shapes the work: much of it is keeping capable, well-kept machines running rather than reviving dead ones — battery replacements, SSD and memory upgrades, and clearing the software clutter that slows an otherwise-healthy Mac. Screen and keyboard repairs come up steadily, and we carry the common Air and Pro panels so most are single-visit jobs. Because so many people here run everything off one machine, backups and data recovery are part of nearly every visit; checking your backup actually runs is free advice we give as standard.
Agreed upfront before we touch your device. No surprises.
Claygate sits a little beyond our closest KT areas, out past Surbiton and Thames Ditton, but it's well within range, there's no callout charge, and same-day is usually workable if you call before 2pm. Parking is generally easy on the residential roads, and we'll agree access around the Parade when you book rather than circling. Evenings and weekends cost no more than a weekday visit — which tends to suit a home-working schedule anyway.
No shop drop-off. We travel to your home or office in Claygate at no extra charge.
Most repairs done on-site within the hour. Book before 2pm and we aim to visit the same day.
Quality replacement parts, backed by a 90-day parts and labour warranty.
If we cannot fix it, you pay absolutely nothing — no diagnostic or callout fee.

A cracked display looks expensive, but the screen is often the only part that needs attention. The key is confirming the rest of the laptop is healthy.
