About Dunstable

Dunstable is a market town in Central Bedfordshire, at the foot of the Chiltern Hills. The town stands where Watling Street crosses the Icknield Way. Henry I founded Dunstable Priory in 1132, and Archbishop Cranmer annulled the marriage of Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon there in 1533.

The railway closed in the 1960s. Since 2013 a guided busway has linked the town with Luton along the old track. The Woodside Industrial Estate on the north-eastern side holds many of the trade and manufacturing firms. Dunstable Downs, owned by the National Trust, rises to the south.

What we do for customers in Dunstable

Repair or replace: a straight answer

Tell us the age of the computer, the model and what you use the machine for. We check the fault and compare the repair cost with the price of a suitable replacement. You decide with both figures in front of you.

Computer and laptop repairs

IT support for firms on the Woodside estate

Workshops and trade units often share one office computer between several jobs. We set up backups, separate work accounts from personal ones and fix the faults stopping work. Tell us which machine the business depends on most.

Business IT support

Upgrades for slow laptops

A solid-state drive or extra memory helps many older laptops. Some models have memory fixed to the board, so we check the exact model before recommending a part.

Maintenance and upgrades

A common problem: an older laptop runs slowly

Send the model, the approximate age and the storage size, plus the programs you use most. We check the health of the drive before suggesting an upgrade, because a failing drive needs a backup first.
