N1 stretches from the Angel and Upper Street across Barnsbury, Canonbury and De Beauvoir to Hoxton and the Regent’s Canal, and Fix It London sends engineers into all of it on the same day you call. A Canonbury freelancer whose MacBook has stopped charging on deadline day, or an Essex Road café whose till PC has frozen mid-service: those are our typical calls, and we are usually at the door within hours.

Typical faults around Islington and Hoxton
Much of N1 is Georgian and Victorian terracing split into flats, often with a router stuck in a hallway and nothing reaching the top floor. We spend a lot of time fixing that. The borough also has one of the highest concentrations of home workers in London, so the other regulars are MacBooks with cracked displays, laptops that overheat and throttle, SSDs filling up, misbehaving external monitors, and the occasional spilt flat white.
Coming to your home in N1
Book a slot that fits your day, with evening and Saturday appointments available. The engineer diagnoses the fault in front of you, gives a fixed price before touching anything, and leaves a spare laptop if your machine has to go back to the workshop. Everything we fit or do is covered for twelve months.
Supporting N1 businesses
Upper Street, Essex Road, Hoxton Square and the studios and agencies around Old Street give N1 an unusually dense mix of hospitality, design and tech firms. For them we provide Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace setup, secure guest and staff Wi-Fi, backup and recovery, networked printers and monthly support contracts sized for small teams.

Our workshop sits inside the Post Office at 64 Chase Side, Southgate, N14 5PA, open Monday to Friday 9:00 to 17:30 and Saturday 9:00 to 14:00.
