PC Scientist · Shelly Beach

Shelly Beach computer repairs and IT support, between the surf and the study

Someone told you the laptop is not worth fixing, and you are not convinced. Near the golf course and the beach in Shelly Beach, plenty of machines get written off that still have years left in them.

The same goes for a shopfront PC or a home office desktop. We give an honest repair-or-replace view, onsite or remotely, with no push either way. Ask for it in writing if that helps. Talk it through on a call, book an eligible visit, or ask for a quote before we start.

Book online for eligible visits and get 10% off.

FAQ

Straight answers for Shelly Beach

Yes. Bring the earlier quote or diagnosis if you have it. We test the drive, battery, memory and screen ourselves, check the age and whether the system still gets updates, and compare the repair cost against a fair replacement. Sometimes the first advice was right, and we will say so. Whichever way it lands, the price for any work is agreed before we begin.

We talk it through on the phone first. If a screen share will do, we start remotely. If the upstairs bedrooms lose Wi-Fi, we usually need to be there in person.

Let us know about pets, parking, or quiet hours and we will plan around them.
