How a repair at our Yaba office works
- Message or walk in. WhatsApp us the model and what's happening (a photo helps), or come to 30 Araromi Street, Onike.
- Diagnosis first. We find the actual fault and tell you what it is in plain language. There's no diagnosis fee.
- Clear price. You get the price and the expected time before we start. Nothing is done without your OK.
- Repair with genuine parts. Quality replacement parts that match your exact model.
- Test and collect. We test the repair with you, and it's covered by our service guarantee: if the same issue comes back within the warranty period, we fix it.
What to bring
- The laptop and its charger (many "won't charge" problems turn out to be the charger).
- Your Windows PIN or password if the repair needs us to test inside Windows, or create a temporary account for us.
- A backup of important files if the laptop still works. If it doesn't, tell us which files matter most.
Students in Yaba and Akoka
If you're at UNILAG, Yabatech or a school nearby and your laptop fails during exams or project season, WhatsApp us first. We'll tell you whether it's likely a quick same-day fix, and if your files are at risk we prioritise getting them off the drive.
