Most overheating fix jobs in Dundee are completed the same day or within 24–48 hours, depending on the fault and parts availability. If you book first thing in the morning, simple fixes are usually returned by the evening. For more complex jobs we can collect from anywhere in DD1 — High Street, Reform Street, Nethergate — and keep you updated by message until the laptop is back with you.
Yes — we cover the full DD1 postcode area. That includes High Street, Reform Street, Nethergate, the Waterfront, the West End, Stobswell, and the rest of central Edinburgh. Whether you need a workshop drop-off, a home visit, or doorstep collection, we adapt to fit your schedule.
All our labour comes with a 30-day workmanship warranty — if the same fault returns, we'll put it right. Parts we supply (batteries, SSDs, screens, keyboards) carry the manufacturer's warranty, typically 6–36 months depending on the component.
We repair every major laptop brand in Dundee: Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, Toshiba, MSI, Razer, Microsoft Surface, and more. Business-grade machines like Lenovo ThinkPad, Dell Latitude/XPS, and HP EliteBook/ProBook are also fully covered. If you're not sure whether your model is supported, just send us a message — almost all are.
Yes — heat is a slow killer. The first symptoms in Dundee machines are throttling and crashes under load; the next step is solder fatigue (especially BGA chips like GPUs) and capacitor failure. Most damage is preventable with regular cleaning and fresh thermal compound — every 18–24 months for laptops, every 3–4 years for desktops. Bring it in for assessment before crashes turn into permanent failures.
Step-by-step: open the laptop, remove the heatsink, vacuum out the fan blades and the heat exchanger (often packed with felt-like dust), wipe the CPU and GPU dies clean, apply fresh thermal paste, replace heat pads where needed, refit. For Dundee customers in DD1 this is usually a same-day repair. After reassembly we run a stress test to confirm temperatures are back in the proper range — usually 10–20°C drop.
Yes — and the difference is striking. Gaming rigs in Dundee build up dust faster than office PCs because of the airflow needed to cool high-TDP CPUs and GPUs. We clean the case, vacuum radiators (they choke first), refresh CPU and GPU paste, check pump health on AIOs, and rebalance fan curves where helpful. Most rigs see 5–10°C lower CPU temps and noticeably quieter operation after service.
