For urgent Onsite Services:

Please Note: As I have invested into a large resource cost into my workshop based service repair and support tools, your most cost & time efficient method is to arrange to bring your faulty computer to my Workshop! My central workshop tools and skills do produce quicker results for you - and often within 24 hours!

I average about 5 urgent workshop repairs per day, and I do efficiently multi-task between several workshop repair jobs (lower costs for you). When you ask me to travel away from the Workshop, it often means other clients are asked to wait for their urgent repairs (then I may need to work very late for other urgent workshop deadlines)!
