Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about virus removal in Motherwell, North Lanarkshire.
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.
A lot of virus removal jobs in Motherwell are finished on the day, on site or at our Edinburgh workshop; when a part is needed, you get a clear time before we start. 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 ML1 — Brandon Street, Hamilton Road, Windmillhill Street — and keep you updated by message until the computer is back with you.
Yes — we cover the full ML1 postcode area. That includes Brandon Street, Hamilton Road, Windmillhill Street, Brandon Parade, Wishaw border, Merry Street, and the rest of central Motherwell. You can drop it at our Edinburgh workshop, post it in, or book a home visit or a collection; in Motherwell visits and collections are by appointment and a travel fee applies.
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.
Not from the cleaning itself. Your personal files are backed up before we begin, and only the malicious programs and what they installed are removed. If ransomware has already encrypted files, we look for backups, cloud copies and previous versions before anything else.
Yes — but be honest with you upfront: paying the ransom is rarely the right answer. We focus on safe recovery for Motherwell clients: isolating the device, identifying the ransomware variant (Cerber, LockBit, etc.), checking for known decryption keys, and recovering data from shadow copies or backups. If the infection has spread across a network, we'll quarantine other devices first. Urgent callouts in the ML1 area by prior agreement.
There are usually telltale signs. For Motherwell customers we typically see: search engine redirects, unwanted browser extensions, popups outside the browser, your homepage or default search changing, programs launching that you didn't install, or general slowness that wasn't there before. If your antivirus has been switched off or won't update, that's a strong signal. We can scan and clean from the workshop or come out to ML1 for a home visit.
Yes. Once we've cleaned a Motherwell machine we also patch it — Windows updates, browser updates, removal of out-of-date plugins, and a working antivirus running on real-time scanning. We check for hidden persistence (boot-time tasks, browser injections, fake services) which is what catches most home cleanups out. You'll also get a short list of habits to avoid the same infection coming back. 30-day cleanup warranty as standard.
