Helping Southend Businesses Save on Tech
Sometimes it’s not about buying new; it’s about fixing what matters. We recently sorted a set of laptops for a local seafront business. The machines were overheating and crashing daily. A round of professional thermal cleaning and SSD installs gave them a new lease of life for a fraction of the cost of replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions (Southend Support)
Do you collect from Leigh-on-Sea or Shoeburyness? Yes! We provide free collection and return for all computer repairs across the entire Southend-on-Sea area, including Thorpe Bay, Shoebury, and Great Wakering.
My laptop is making a loud whirring noise — can it be fixed? Definitely. This is almost always a fan issue caused by dust buildup or a failing bearing. We can clean the cooling system and replace the fan if necessary to make your laptop quiet and stable again.
Can you help if I’ve been targeted by a phone or email scam? Yes. We have extensive experience in Scam Clean-ups. We’ll remove any malicious software the scammers may have installed and perform a full security audit on your device to ensure your banking and data are safe.
