Why Polegate Businesses Choose Local Support
Polegate's identity as a rail junction town means residents often commute to London, Eastbourne, or other East Sussex towns, many working remotely from home. A functioning computer is essential for earning a living. The town's 20th-century residential stock—rows of semis and detached homes—all contain households dependent on reliable PCs. When your machine fails, you need same-day local repair without courier delays. I fix computers in BN26, handling on-site repairs so you're back online within hours.

Straight Answers to Common Questions
I'm working from home in a 1970s house with heating and power issues. Can my computer cope?
Yes, but you need to protect it. A good surge protector guards against power spikes—common in older houses. Ensure your desk area has proper ventilation so your machine doesn't overheat. A UPS (uninterruptible power supply) gives you time to save work if the power cuts briefly. I can advise on all of these.
Do you do home or office call-outs?
Yes. I come to you anywhere across Sussex. No need to pack up your computer and drop it off somewhere.
How much does a PC repair typically cost?
I'll always give you a clear estimate before any work starts: no surprise bills and no jargon. What I charge depends on what's actually wrong (software issues are quicker than hardware failures) and whether it's a straightforward fix or something more involved. Message me with what's happening and I'll give you a straight answer on scope, timing, and cost before we commit to anything.
Can you recover data from a computer that won't turn on?
Usually, yes: a dead computer doesn't mean dead data. The drive inside is often fine even when the machine itself is broken. I can pull the drive, recover what's on it, and put it on your new machine.
Do you sell new computers as well as fix old ones?
I don't sell hardware directly, but I advise on the right spec for your needs and can source and configure it for you. You pay the supplier directly; I just charge for the setup and data migration.
