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 Peebles: Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, Toshiba, MSI, Razer, Microsoft Surface, and more.

Yes — heat is a slow killer. The first symptoms in Peebles 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 Peebles customers in EH45 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 Peebles 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.
