What We Actually Do
Most of it is repair — computers, laptops, phones, tablets, consoles and the occasional thing nobody else would take on. Both stores have full technical workshops with Microsoft and Intel certified technicians, and we hold an extensive range of parts in stock so the majority of jobs don't sit waiting on an order.
The rest is the stuff that surprises people. We run a laser engraver, so we do security marking and personalisation. We convert old VHS, camcorder tapes and film reels to digital before they degrade past saving. We print ID and membership cards. We clean corroded circuit boards ultrasonically and bring back equipment that looked finished. We write insurance reports. And we build gaming PCs to a standard that takes considerably longer than throwing parts in a case.
None of that was findable on our old website — and after years of the rest of the business moving faster than the site describing it, this one is finally caught up.

How We Work
You Get a Price Before We Start
Every job begins with a diagnosis, and nothing goes further without your say-so. If additional parts or labour turn out to be needed, you hear about it first.
We'll Tell You Not to Bother
If a machine isn't worth repairing, we say so. The diagnosis exists so you can decide on real information — and if replacing is the better spend, we move your data across.
Nobody Builds Until They're Trained
Custom machines are built to one standard by someone trained and signed off to hit it, at either store. That's a deliberate rule, and it's why they all look the same regardless of who assembled them.
Parts Are Held in Stock
An extensive range at both stores, so most repairs don't wait on an order. Specialty parts are typically two to three days.
Loan Phones While You Wait
If a phone repair has to stay with us overnight, we'll lend you a smartphone so you're not cut off.
Remote Support When You Can't Get In
A lot of software problems can be sorted over the internet without you leaving the house, from $39.
