Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about home visit computer repair in Galashiels, Scottish Borders.
Every computer job is a little different, so we discuss the work and the price directly with you before anything starts. Send us a message or give us a call with a quick description of the issue and we'll come back with a clear plan tailored to your computer. No surprises and no hidden fees — you'll know exactly what's involved before you commit.
Visits to Galashiels are booked ahead rather than on the day you call: we agree a day and a time with you, and the quote includes the travel fee. Many faults are fixed on the visit, and if a part is needed we tell you how long it will take. 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 TD1 — High Street, Channel Street, Bank Street — and keep you updated by message until the computer is back with you.
Yes — we cover the full TD1 postcode area. That includes High Street, Channel Street, Bank Street, the Town Centre, Tweedbank border, the Station side, and the rest of central Galashiels. A workshop drop-off, a posted repair, a booked home visit or a collection all work for Galashiels; visits and collections are by appointment and carry a travel fee.
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.
Anything that can be put right with the computer where it sits: start-up and Windows faults, viruses, Wi-Fi, printers, email, backups, new set-ups and most desktop hardware. Repairs that need specialist tools are taken to the workshop and brought back to Galashiels afterwards.
Yes — evening callouts up to 8pm and weekend slots are part of our regular Galashiels offering. Evening and Saturday visits are no extra; Galashiels carries a travel fee in the quote, and urgent callouts are arranged by prior agreement. Most home users actually prefer evening slots — kids done, dinner done, you're at the desk where the problem is. TD1 weekend slots fill up first, so book ahead.
Very little. Power on password, wifi password if the visit involves network or browser issues, and a clear path to the device. If you've got a list of specific symptoms (e.g. "crashes when I open Excel" or "slow only in the evenings"), even a one-line note speeds up diagnosis significantly. For Galashiels customers we bring all tools, cables, and software — your kit stays untouched outside the device under repair.
Yes — small business and home-office IT is a significant part of our Galashiels on-site work. Typical jobs: network and router setup, multi-machine domain configuration, Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace migrations, printer fleet management, NAS setup, basic server work, and cybersecurity hardening. We schedule around your trading hours and can work out-of-hours where downtime matters. Quotes are project-based or hourly depending on what suits you.
