I needed an upgrade on my laptop from Windows 7 to 10. Service was friendly, very prompt and and time was taken to explain the aspects that I did not understand. A real effort was taken to charge me only what needed to be done, instead of following Microsoft's advice to replace my laptop. I came on a recommendation from a friend, and I've already recommended Inspiration to another friend. It is reassuring to know that there is a helpful small business nearby that can sort out your tech problems.

Lee and Alison are so friendly and have designed and developed my website over The many years of me being self employed. They host my website too and look after it for me. They are my first port of call if I can’t find my way around anything IT. As I’m dyslexic and sometimes find it difficult. They have helped me so much in the past, with my need for a lap top and backing it up and talking me through things in simple terms that I can understand. They’ve also helped me with small things such as putting my email on my New iPhone. I highly recommend them. They are so professional and friendly too! Fast service! I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Always willing to help! Very high standard!

Thanks for your review, we understand that smaller things like putting email settings into a new phone can be daunting for people - after all it's not something that needs to be done that often. I'm glad we got you sorted whilst you waited, so that your business email was back up and running quickly :)

I've been a customer with Inspiration Computers for over ten years. They have built two desktop PCs for me, both exactly what I needed and done on time and to budget. No upselling or waffle here, if you don't need it, Lee and Alison will tell you. The choice of PC spec available has something for all needs and budgets and of course they will tailor it to your own requirements. I can honestly say I would not go anywhere else, my son is a computer programmer/ technician and would underline my comments. Don't hesitate to try them out, they will guide you through whatever your knowledge level.

Thanks for the review... if I have the right customer, I think years ago we gave your son a little pile of computer components and old bits and pieces to have a go with - so we are pleased he's gone on to work in the industry. Hope the new desktop serves you as well as the old one.

As an elderly numpty when it comes to computers I can only say thank goodness for Lee and Alison at Inspirations. Over several years they have helped me and my equipment keep going. However the time came two weeks ago when I had to get a new lap top and finally take on Windows 10. Lee worked his magic and sorted everything with what I consider to be very important and that was his infinite patience. Without hesitation I would recommend their services.

Now then, a bit less of the of "elderly numpty" talk please! Glad to see Lee still has a bit of magic left in him - but joking aside I hope you get on well with Windows 10, and of course any questions just give us a call.

On Monday 27th of January I thought I would be clever and do a free update from Windows 7 to Windows 10. It took all night but I ended up with Windows 10. But I lost all my bookmarks and lost all my files. Luckily I had backed up 99% of the files to an external hard drive. Hmm I thought, I'll do a System Restore and as the machine rolled backed it just packed in and died. I took my PC to Inspiration Computers on Tuesday 28th January, told them the tale, and booked my machine in. Thursday 30th January at 16:55 I received a text to say my PC was fixed and Inspiration Computers had updated it to Windows 10 and recovered all my data. Bingo, what a result. I went and picked the machine up, got it all running again, which seemed faster than before, and it had been cleaned (dust removal). I owe Alison and Lee big time because by fixing my PC I got Guns n Roses tickets for London in May for my wife. I live in the village where Inspiration Computers is based and I use them whenever I need PC help. Alison and Lee are experts with computers and straight talkers; no PC waffle to bamboozle you. Excellent service and I am a very, very satisfied customer.

Thank you for the review! Our turnaround time that week was longer than average, but when we realised you needed to buy tickets on Friday we pulled all the stops out to try and get you up and running. I hope your wife is very happy to be going to Guns N Roses!
Excellent service - So lucky to have them in my village.

I first met Alison when someone had bought me a computer from Currys which was unsuitable. I had tried to return it but had been refused. I phoned Inspiration Computers to asked what they would suggest I buy and after finding out what model I had, Alison came to see me at home with a computer that was very similar to my old one so it would be easy for me to make the change. She also encouraged me to continue to ask for a refund and I succeeded. She spent time finding out what I use it for and transferred relevant data across and set it up. Then came to my house to link it to the internet and to my printer. She made the process very easy which was great as I have cancer. I found their service to be professional, knowledgeable and straightforward. Am very lucky that they are in my village.

We were glad to be able to get you sorted out with a laptop that was suitable for you and to get it all set up, and thank you for the chocolate biscuits when I came to install!
Excellent advice and then correct diagnostics and repair.

Two computers. HP Stream 11 required larger hard drive and battery test. And Dell Inspiron 3650 not booting to Windows. Was advised that upgrade for HP Stream was uneconomic. Lee directed me to a website containing instructions to disassemble it and do DIY upgrade. Knew the job was beyond me. Lee’s advice very helpful in deciding to cancel the upgrade plan. And that advice was not to his firm’s financial advantage. Which made me think I had come across a firm which had integrity. Subsequent events proved him right twice over. His initial advice. And upgrading required serious professional knowledge of computer motherboards. On Inspiron used Dell diagnostic software. It decided the hard drive needed replacing (cost about £97) and the wireless card needed reseating and the antenna was not right. Then did as Lee advised and made a Windows 10 Installation Media USB stick. Which failed to start Windows. At that point boxed it up and sent it to Inspiration Computers. The diagnosis? Main SSD C drive gone. Rest of machine ok. Offered choice of three drives, chose 480GB and Lee did the rest. All fixed now. Not once did diagnostics say SSD was broken. Could have bought a new hard drive. A new wireless card. And a new copy of Windows 10. I am an amateur. To quote Red Adair 'If you think hiring a professional is expensive wait until you hire an amateur.' Got a broken computer? Are you an amateur? Avoid wasting your time. Make contact with Inspiration Computers!

I've just purchased my second PC from this family firm and had the same excellent service as I had before . Good quality equipment at good value prices backed up with extremely good and friendly service in the shop and on the phone . I would have no hesitation in recommending Inspiration Computers to anyone.
