If you need a computer Expert to help you, so where do you begin? Some people say that the best possible choice is asking for the recommendation of friends, groups you are a member of, those at church or those at your place of work.
But is that really so?
What does the regular guy know about PC's? Would they recognize what was great value or whether their computer repair guy was cheating them?
You can grab a local directory and start calling. You can also scour bulletin boards at area local businesses.
But how do you know these businesses are even legitimate?
You can increase the chances of a great service by following these steps:
So what should I be looking out for?
1) Cost
PC Repair is a skilled trade, like joinery for example. If someone says they charge £16 per hour then you have got to question if they are competant or are they just an amateur trying their luck? The other alternative is that it is just a link to sway you into calling them and getting them round. When the final bill comes it is inevitably going to be much more because they had to "replace" parts that were not even broken, or because they had to spend "20 hours" fixing it. PC repair is a skilled service so be prepared to pay a reasonable amount for a great job. In London, expect to pay £50-100 for the first hour and then 25-50 per 1\2 hour after that. Anywhere else, £30-50 is reasonable for the first hour and 15-25 per half hour after that. Never expect to pay more than £100 unless parts have failed. If they are replacing parts, ask for the old ones!
2) Contact details
Is it really sensible to be contacting a company whose location you are unsure of. Nothing incentivises a business to behave correctly more than having a reputation to protect in the area where they trade. If they are established then they have something to loose by ripping you off! Choose a firm with a local number( 01253 870170) for Blackpool PC Repair for example. A mobile is the biggest sign that a company are fly by night! If a company cannot afford £11 a month for a phone line you need to stay away!
3) Demeanor
If a business isn't polite to you on the phone, they won't be nice when they have to traipse round to your house! Politeness, interest and helpfulness are key indicators of how a company view their clients! Look for somebody who wants to know the problem before they come round. If they are looking for answers they may know what is wrong before the come round and can bring the right tools, software or parts. This can only save you money!
Finally trust your gut! If it seems too good to be true, it will be! If they feel dodgy, they probably are. PC Repair isn't cheap but it should never cost a fortune! Choose a company using just my 3 main points and you have a much higher chance of getting great service!
