Report
We specialise in Upgrading PC's, of course we have to balance the merits of doing so with the Customer.
Once we know which Components the Customer wants to improve, then we discuss the cost and implications of the work.
It is not always Cost Effective to Upgrade if you have to change too many parts, most Older PC's can still be sold as is and when you factor in the cost of the Parts you intend to Buy with the Money you get from the Sale of the old one you can usually be close to the Cost of a New PC.

Very good service both times I have been. Very reasonable price, accommodating of specific requirements and happy to explain what the issues were. Completed fixes within hours each time and the shop itself has always taken covid seriously (which isn't true of all small businesses!) - highly recommend.

I emailed Karl to ask for a price to upgrade the memory in my computer. He quoted but also gave me very useful advice on how to check whether that was indeed my issue - it wasn't and so saved me an unnecessary expense! I am truly grateful for his assistance I and won't hestitate to take my business there in the future should it be necessary.

Had a problem with my mini tower system, phoned up and then took it in 30mins later. Very knowledgeable, looked at it straight away, did some diagnostics and tests and found a faulty memory board (quite unusual). Showed me the tests and the failing results as proof. Told me it would run fine for my use with the remaining memory board (which it does, can't tell the difference), didn't try to sell me another. Was out within 30mins and his charge was next to nothing. Very impressed and appreciative. Am new to the area so it takes a while to work out which suppliers you can trust - would highly recommend this repairer. Thanks.

With trepidation, I trusted my laptop to Highridge Computers, to rescue 12,000 hit songs (of all genre) on a corrupted Windows Media player. Suffice to say, 24 hours later I was re-united with my music and a virus free and revitalised laptop. Carl the Computer was knowledgeable, courteous, expedient, efficient and reasonably priced. In all, a refreshing experience that I would totally recommend.

Excellent service! My PC's screen went blank and they fixed the problem very quickly. Carl is not only knowledgeable about everything computer-related but he's also patient, extremely generous with his time, and has great integrity. His workshop is clean and well organised. And on top of all this, reasonable charges, too. What more can you ask for!

I have never experienced such appalling customer service ever, took a laptop for repair 3 times within 3 months with the same fault each time, 1st time was charged 68 2nd time 40 and the 3rd time left specific instructions to give me a quote before carrying out work but they took it upon themselves to repair and charged 50,b laming the antivirus each time, laptop has broke again after a couple of weeks but this time I will take it to an expert with manners!

Had a smashed screen on touchscreen laptop, which, after talking with quite a few companies to try and fix nobody would touch it. Computer was virtually unusable. Took it into high bridge and although not able to solve the problem entirely had managed to get my computer usable working 20 mins. Will definitely go back for future problems.
