I had issue with a slow performing laptop and Jordan couldn't have been more helpful. Quick to respond to messages, kept me informed about what the issues might be and offered solutions to resolve them including the cost. The laptop was upgraded and now works much more efficiently. Excellent service. Will be using Jordan for all my tech issues!

LaunchLayer sorted out my slow PC in no time. They figured out it was the hard drive, recommended an SSD upgrade and got it all sorted quickly. My computer now runs like new, and the whole process was easy. Would definitely recommend!

Had my gaming laptop cleaned and looked at after a few keys stopped working. It was overheating and running slow, but it got stripped down, cleaned properly, reapplied thermal paste and even managed to remap a broken key so I could keep using it without replacing the keyboard. Really honest service, no pressure to replace parts unnecessarily. Laptop’s running way cooler and feels much snappier now. Would definitely recommend!

Took my child’s tablet in because the battery was barely lasting an hour. It was looked at quickly, and the battery was replaced with no fuss. Turnaround was fast, and it’s working perfectly now. Great service and fairly priced too. Would definitely go back if we have any more tech issues.

My tablet was getting painfully slow, apps took forever to load and it kept freezing. LaunchLayer cleaned it up, removed some background junk, and tweaked a few settings I didn’t even know existed. It runs much smoother now, and I didn’t lose any of my files. Super helpful, quick service, and explained things in plain English. Would definitely recommend if your tablet is running slow

I was about to buy a new laptop after smashing the screen, but decided to check if it could be fixed first. So glad I did. The screen was replaced quickly, and it’s now working like new again. Saved me the cost of buying a new one!

I had issues with my laptop constantly freezing, or taking forever to boot! Before I condemned it to the back of the cupboard I thought i’d give these guys a go to see if they could help. I’m glad I did, as within a day it was sorted, turned the hard drive was on its last legs! They replaced it for me and when i got it back it was like a new laptop, with everything in its right place. It was refreshingly simple and all at a fair price, so I would definitely use them again!

We’ve been working with LaunchLayer for months now and can’t recommend them highly enough. They helped us design and build a bespoke inspection app in AppSheet that automates our checklist process and generates branded PDF reports — exactly what we needed, without any fuss. They also set up our email users, made everything more accessible, and got us sorted with GDPR basics. It’s made a real difference to how we run things. An excellent all-round IT partner — we’ll definitely keep working with them

Was on a work trip to Essex when my laptop crashed and I could not get it to restart, found Launchlayer on Google, and was really impressed on how quickly they were able to get my laptop in and up and working again!

Had a custom PC built and honestly couldn’t be happier. Asked for something solid for gaming and what I got was way better than expected. Nice tidy build, runs everything like a dream, and it was kept in my agreed budget too. Definitely recommend if your machine’s on its last legs or you want something new.

LaunchLayer in Wickford cleaned up a laptop for me. It was long overdue one and was a bit loud whenever I turned it on. The service was quick and the laptop runs much faster now. They also cleaned a projector for me that was dusty. They were honest in telling me it’ll likely come back but I’m grateful for the work they’ve done and will use them again. Highly recommend.
