Problems WD6 residents bring to us
Borehamwood has a great deal of post-war housing alongside newer developments. In the newer blocks we see dropped laptops and liquid damage, while older houses tend to suffer poor Wi-Fi and desktops running on tired hard drives. Because of the studios, we meet more than the usual number of workstations used for editing and design, which need fast storage, more memory and careful fan cleaning. Scam software and lost data are constant themes everywhere.
We come out to you
Home visits in WD6 are booked for a specific time, often the same day if you ring in the morning, with evening and Saturday options. Diagnosis happens in front of you, the price is fixed before work begins, and every repair carries a 12-month warranty. If we need to take a device away, you keep one of our spare laptops meanwhile.
IT for Borehamwood businesses
Shenley Road, the Elstree Way corridor and the Borehamwood Industrial Park and Centennial Park estates contain hundreds of small firms, from production companies to accountants, trades and warehouses. We set up and manage Microsoft 365, build secure backups, install office networks, keep Macs and PCs running, and offer monthly support contracts so there is one number to call when anything breaks.
The Southgate workshop
If you would rather drop something off, our workshop is inside the Post Office at 64 Chase Side, Southgate N14 5PA, open Monday to Friday 9:00–17:30 and Saturday 9:00–14:00. From Borehamwood it is roughly 30 to 40 minutes by car along the A1 and the A110 through Barnet, or Thameslink from Elstree & Borehamwood to St Pancras and then the Piccadilly line to Southgate station, a short walk from the shop. Most WD6 customers ask us to visit instead.

Frequently asked questions
It is not, because WD6 lies outside the 5-mile radius around Southgate. We can collect for a small quoted fee or pick the device up during a home visit.
Usually. An SSD, extra memory and a proper clean of the cooling system make a big difference, and we will say so if a new machine is the better buy.
We will tell you plainly, rescue the data and, if you like, set up a replacement with your files already in place.
