Remote Support

Many computer problems can be fixed without you leaving your home or office. With remote support, we connect to your PC, laptop or Mac over the internet, with your permission, and fix the problem while you watch. It’s ideal for software faults, virus removal, slow computers and set-up jobs, and it’s available 7 days a week, 7am to 10pm.

Call 07856 990719 or message us on WhatsApp for a free diagnosis and an upfront quote. Open 7 days, 7am to 10pm.

Remote computer support from PC Laptop Repair

Remote support uses a small, secure remote-access program that you run on your computer. Once you share access with us, we can see your screen and take control to diagnose and fix the problem. You can watch everything we do, ask questions as we go, and end the session at any time. It’s a quick option for home users, students and small businesses in Ilford, Redbridge and the surrounding areas.

What we can fix remotely

  • Windows errors, crashes, blue screens and failed updates
  • Viruses, spyware, pop-ups and browser redirects (see virus and malware removal)
  • Slow computers: startup clean-up and performance tuning
  • Microsoft Office, email and software installation and set-up (see software and OS installation)
  • Printer and scanner set-up and driver problems
  • Settings, accounts and general how-to help

How remote support works

  1. Get in touch by phone or WhatsApp and tell us what’s wrong.
  2. Free diagnosis: we talk it through, confirm it can be fixed remotely and give you an upfront quote.
  3. Connect: we send you a link to a secure remote-access program and you start the session.
  4. Fix: we repair the problem while you watch, then check everything works.
  5. Finish: the session closes when we’re done, and you only pay once it’s fixed.

When hands-on repair is the better fit

Hardware faults such as a cracked screen, a faulty charging port or a failing drive need a hands-on repair. If remote support shows a hardware fault, we’ll arrange drop-off at our Ilford workshop, collection or a home or office visit instead.
