Any upgrade is the quickest and most cost effective way to get more from you computer.

Can you supply new equipment or parts for upgrades?

Yes.  We will talk you through the various options and make suggestions for purchases to meet your needs.

We can also source the equipment saving you the time.

Do you price match?

Price is an important consideration and it is ALWAYS our intention to obtain the lowest price possible, but we are keen to offer the best service.  We have been let down too often by suppliers offering lower cost at the expense of late deliveries and poor after sales service.  We understand that if you want the product in 2 days then we shall get it in 2 days and sometimes we pay a little bit extra for a reliable service.

If we do provide a quotation and you subsequently find it cheaper elsewhere then we have no problems with you getting the kit and then calling us to install it.

What’s not included in the Service?

This service is here to help you install equipment but in some instances the shop or website  you purchased your equipment from may not have provided all the necessary extras required.  For instance, when buying a printer, it is very rare that the manufacturer includes a cable to connect it to your computer.  We always carry spare cables to cover this type of shortfall but do charge for it as it would be an extra to our normal pricing policy.
