Hull Computers are a computer repair company with a difference - we aim to save you money!
Yes that's right, if you don't need an upgrade, we won't sell you one. If your computer isn't worth fixing..... then we'll tell you to buy another one!
Whenever possible we like to fix our labour charges based on how long it should take a competent technician to fix any given problem, this means you know how much it's going to cost, with no nasty surprises when it comes to paying!
Are we mad? Our bank manager thought so, but our repeat customers tell us that they like to bring their PC to a company they can trust won't rip them off. Which means ultimately we make our money providing services that customers really do want or need, knowing that a happy customer is a future customer.
We treat all our customers the same, whether your a home user with a PC start up problem to fix, or a business user wanting 100 PC's cleaning and upgrading, we strive to do the job at a price that suits you and us.
Quite often we will make a provisional diagnosis of a computer problem and give you an idea of how long it is likely to take to fix (and of course how much it will cost), if we deem this amount to be more than the computer is worth or more than YOU the customer was hoping to pay, we are happy to discuss a fixed price fix.
This means that we will take your PC and share the technicians time between 2-4 PC's, which means the technician isn't just solely working on your computer, but can do other tasks on other PC's while waiting for files to copy etc.
We appreciate that there are a lot of individuals and companies out there offering PC repair services, and we hope that you can see we really are different to the rest and we aim to ensure 100% customer satisfaction.
We also like to point out that unlike a lot of these "businesses" we are a real world Ltd company, with business premises and insurances, qualified/ trained and experienced PC technicians and are indeed a local company.

Computer Tune-Up
Report
A software PC tune up will help your PC run as best it can on the hardware within it. We search for obsolete files and redundant registry entries that may be slowing down your PC, we tweak the start up programs and installed software settings to prevent conflicts and memory leaks, we then tweak hidden settings to suit your individual PC usage.
Computer Maintenance
Report
Your PC fans are constantly sucking in air to keep your PC cool, unfortunately this means they are acting like a hoover and sucking in dirt, fluff, pet hairs, skin cells, carpet fibres etc etc. Unless your PC is new or has been cleaned at least once a year - there is a chance that it will be running slow, and could even pose a fire hazard! CPU's need to be kept cool, and fluff balls can block fans and prevent this cooling process. Your CPU will try to compensate by reducing it's operating speed to keep cool - meaning your PC runs slow. Let us strip down your PC, clean & inspect all components, clean the CPU/heatsink and reapply thermal paste to keep your PC running at it's best.
WiFi Security
Report
A recent wifi security audit of hull revealed that a staggering 40% of all wifi networks had poor security or NO security enabled! In addition to this, users of Thomson routers provided by Karoo are at risk due to a security exploit available to anyone with a smart phone! This means that anyone can connect to these networks and download all manner of illegal material. For a fixed fee of 40 Pounds we will come to your home and audit your network, connect into your router, and setup the security properly - and also configure any devices that use the network.
Website Design
Report
We can discuss with you what you hope to achieve through your website, what features it should have, then design something to suit your needs and budget. It may be a static brochure style site, a brochure style site that can be updated by yourself, or even a fully populated e-commerce store with SEO integrated into the coding - we have experience of them all. We can also put together a maintenance package to ensure your site is monitored and updated regularly.

I've been a loyal client of Lee @ Hull Computers for several years. Every year, I entrust him with servicing my computer and renewing its security, always at a fair cost and with swift and convenient completion. Whenever issues arise, he's been a reliable troubleshooter, offering excellent service and advice consistently. Lee is approachable, helpful, and provides services at reasonable prices. I wholeheartedly recommend his services; he's a truly commendable individual.

I worked recommend these guys massively. I was at my wits end with my pc and the guys here were great. Very friendly to begin with and clearly explained how the diagnosis and repair process would work. The turnaround time was very quick and the cost was more than acceptable to me. Honestly can't speak highly enough of the guys here and would definitely go back again should I need any more help. Thanks!

I recieved a very quick & efficient email outlining the services suggested along with very reasonable price breakdown (which I really appreciated) - transparent & informative from the get go. When I dropped off my laptop, I received extremely professional & friendly service & was able to collect my previously faulty laptop up a day later & has been working perfect ever since. Would totally recommend!

After a routine Windows update my laptop wouldn't load back up as something had become corrupt. I managed to get it working again in a fashion but it was slow and something wasn't right. A quick call to Hull Computers as I've been using them for a few years now and they diagnosed the problem and also upgraded my hard drive to a SSD without losing any files and now the laptop is performing even better than before. Really nice guys to speak to and very knowledgable and upfront with costs. Can't recommend them enough

September 2021. Only met Lee and Mark a few weeks ago whilst they were fitting out their new shop. In that time they have fixed my son's PC and then gave me all the information (following hundreds of questions from me) to fully network my home. They supplied the cable (which I fitted all around the house) then Lee paid a visit and fitted all the plugs and sockets, checked my router, set up my son's access point and advised on how to get the best out of our installation. Everything is now stable and fast. Such a contrast to what we did have. Expert advice from very knowledgeable people.

Had a suspected motherboard or PSU failure that I couldn't fully diagnose at home so gave the PC to the guys and after a full strip down, new paste, and full clean the computer worked good as new which is the ideal result. Really knowledge, friendly, professional blokes who I wouldn't hesitate to give my precious rig to again in future!

My Acer Monza laptop had major problems with the hinges, I took it to Hull Computers, and he explained exactly what was needed. The repair was done expertly and quickly despite new parts being ordered. Very much value for money both for efficiency, time and the thorough explanation of action taken. I would recommend them for any computer problems.

My laptop was running slow and needed some much needed TLC. Hull computers identified a failing hard drive. Before any repairs they spoke to me and gave me options before going ahead. All the data was transferred and when I noticed some missing it was sorted next day. Couldn’t recommend these guys enough. No wonder they have a 5 star rating. Any future problems I have I won’t be going anywhere else. Thank you guys.

Lee gave me an evaluation on the sale cost of my old laptop to help me decide how much I wanted to spend getting it repaired, then estimated the repair between £65 and £100s++++. Then he had a mega brain wave and solved the problem for £15. You gotta luv this guys sales pitch! Will definitely be going back and also recommending to friends. Thanks Lee

Have had Hull Computers owner Lee to fix a problem on my laptop. What a lovely courteous person he is. Quick to reply, and he had my connection to the internet solved in no time. Very reasonable with prices and very fair. I won't hesitate to use Hull Comp. again. In fact I wouldn't ring anyone else.

My Laptop had a massive crack down the screen and didn't know where to go to get it fixed... I rang up a few places but when I phoned Hull Computers they sounded really happy to help and was reasonably priced. They had in stock my replacement screen so I wasn't waiting and they did it straight away on that day. The customer service was amazing and my laptop is as good as new...
I would not hesitate in recommending this company as they are fantastic and helped me with other problems too... The guy was very knowledgeable and just had fantastic customer service skills which I highly rate! Infact I work in a school and am going to take in a business card should we have any issues with our computer technology! Highly recommended... Thank you Hull Computers...

Really knowledgeable guys, managed to fix our laptop when the original seller couldn't even do it on the warranty. Only had to go a day without it and could track the repair process online which was nice. Price was very reasonable as well.
Overall, wouldn't hesitate to recommend Hull Computers. Thanks guys :)

I emailed Hull Computers on Monday explained to them I had been barraged with viruses and malware, they collected my laptop on the Tuesday, fixed my laptop and returned it to me on Thursday. They themselves admitted it was some nasty malware running around in my systems but clearly nothing they couldn't handle. A big thank you to these guys, would definitely recommend these people and will be using them again.

Hull Computers repaired my Asus Zenbook screen. This was a tricky job and I found it difficult to find anyone who would take it on. I was really impressed with the service, both the repair and the customer service that I received. I would highly recommend them. Defenitely worth the short trip from Hornsea to find a decent, well priced and timely operation. Thanks.
