About

Hi there! We’re PCs Made Simple, your guide and interpreter in the weird world of computers and cyber-space! We speak your language and will use it to discuss your computing needs. Welcome also fellow Geeks, we speak your language too and share your enthusiasm! Our aim is simply to provide you with the computing facilities or services you may require. All while explaining everything clearly, in plain English, and never trying to sell you something that you don’t want or need.

Building PCs is what we do best. Every PC we make is tailor made for you and will usually be cheaper (but still far better) than an “off-the-shelf” model designed to cater for everyone. And of course we are also here to look after your existing computer; whatever make, model, or operating system it is.

We started this business with a mission, to cut through all the gobbledygook and mystique surrounding computers and their use and to save people unnecessary costs.

That has never changed!

I asked for a refurbished PC which could easily be upgraded to M.S. Windows 10, with up to date functions - twelve months later, after a successful upgrade to Windows 10, the PC is performing superbly & I returned to tell "PCs Made Simple". I am pleased to make this positive recommendation.

I purchased my laptop from PCs made simple a few years ago and since then whenever I have a problem they will solve it, either by telephone or in the shop. Nothing is too much bother for them and they cater brilliantly with IT illiterates - like me. They are superb.

My laptop suddenly died and I couldn’t power it up so I called Dave at 10.30am and within an hour I was in the repair centre and the hard drive failure was diagnosed. I also had some settings problems which were slowing down the power up process which Dave volunteered to sort out as well. Nothing was too much trouble and my laptop was back with me working with no loss of data by 4.30 in the afternoon. Brilliant service and saved my skin as I rely on my laptop as a self employed marketing professional. Highly recommended.

I visited PCs Made Simple after reading the reviews. My local computer shop had badly bodged my PC and external hard drive, so I needed to find someone who actually knew what they were doing. They were polite, cheery and explained things in a way that a numpty like me could understand. First class service and keen pricing. What more would you need?

Kodak Printer suddenly just wouldn't work Wi-Fi or USB cable connection

Phoned and made appointment for home visit. Clifford arrived punctually and soon diagnosed the problem, the Kodak update app had been switched off ( from when this new computer was set up for me a year ago - ( NOT by PCs made simple but my previous IT guy. ) Clifford was friendly, polite, helpful and informative. He reinstalled the latest Kodak drivers and updates, cleaned the print heads etc after which it worked perfectly Wi-Fi. He gave me useful advice on the printer and because I always turn my hub off after I have finished using my laptop he gave the printer a permanent hub address so that there is instant link up between the devices. The bill was exactly as per the estimate. I would definitely use them again.

It couldn't have been easier. One phone call, efficient and friendly response. In a few days I had my laptop back with a new shiny screen. They also removed an expired antivirus which they had spotted while working on the machine and checked out a question I had about my tablet at no extra cost. I believe the price charged was extremely fair and the good service was a bonus.

Always 5 start service
Clifford has been managing my laptop remotely for over 2 years when I initially purchased it from him. The standard of remote service I have received since then has been excellent every time. Even with the recent crisis my queries have been answered swiftly and with the usual expertise. This particular appointment I went on to ask other questions about Dropbox Pro, I am so not in touch with the IT world way out of my comfort zone. Not only was Clifford patient enough to talk me through the process of what I had set up and what I actually needed he saved me £550 per year !!! I have never had the ongoing honest knowledgeable patient support that I have now and would not hesitate to recommend PC's Made Simple to anyone.

We had a very old printer which stopped working. Dropped it round to their shop. They carried out a diagnostic test within 2hrs - Excellent report back. Scrapped printer. They helped us buy another one. Came next day. I have no hesitation in recommending them to friends & family.
