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.

Richmond is the most Mac-heavy area we cover — full of media and creative professionals editing, designing and producing, often on machines stuffed with project files and running at the limit of their storage. When one goes down mid-project, "leave it a week" isn't an answer, so we bring laptop & PC repair to your home studio or office; cracked screens, laptops that won't power on, keyboard spills and failing hard drives are the jobs we are called out for most.
We cover Richmond, Kew and St Margarets with a fully mobile service — a fixed quote first, no callout charge, and our No Fix, No Fee guarantee.
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.

Across Richmond, 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.
Storage is the recurring Richmond theme: drives that are full, drives that are failing, and external drives full of footage that have stopped mounting. A lot of our work here is recovery and upgrade rather than classic breakage — getting the data off safely first, then making the machine fast enough to work on again. The creative machines also run hot: MacBook Pros that throttle, fans that never stop, and thermal problems from years of rendering, often a clean and a repaste rather than anything dramatic. We do the usual too — screens, batteries, liquid damage — but Richmond skews toward keeping a working machine working rather than resurrecting a dead one. If you're mid-project and something's going wrong, call before it fails properly; it's a much better conversation than the one after.
Agreed upfront before we touch your device. No surprises.
Richmond is a slightly longer run from New Malden than our KT-postcode areas, but there's still no callout charge and same-day is usually workable if you call before 2pm. Parking in Richmond town and around the Green is genuinely hard and largely permit-controlled, so we'll sort access with you at booking; if you're in a studio or shared office we'll come to the desk. Evenings and weekends are no extra charge, which tends to suit a freelance schedule better anyway.
No shop drop-off. We travel to your home or office in Richmond 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.
