How much does computer repair cost in Orange County, California?

Computer Repair Prices in 2023 have decreased significantly. CPU repair prices have also gone up, cost of parts has gone up, due to trade wars with China, and the general logistics issues with the Ports of LA and Long Beach. The cost to repair your CPU or Computer is based on the time involved and the cost of labour. Overall, the time to repair has dropped due to the maturity of windows and MacOs. Technicians are able to make repairs much faster now. However, labour rates have gone up with the ever increasing cost of doing business in California. Computer repair covers a variety of internal and external computer issues. In California, the cost for repair may be a little higher due to the operational costs associated with running a business in this state. Items to be repaired can include desktop computers, all-in-one computers, tablets and netbooks, and laptops, as well as external items such as printers, scanners and cameras. Common requests for computer repair assistance include cracked or damaged screens, broken laptop keyboards, hardware or software issues, computers that won't turn on, computers that freeze-up, error messages and/or warnings, suspected malware or virus infections, internet connectivity concerns, diagnostic services, upgrading components, data recovery, and more. The use of screensharing technologies such as Teamviewer or Zoom has made computer repair tasks much easier, and now there are offshore/overseas operators involved. The proliferation of English as a global language has made it possible for anyone in the world to be a computer tech for Americans. However, Americans still don't sit well with foreigners working on their computers.

How Can We Repair Your Computer?

Computer diagnostics and repairs typically involve using software, hardware, part substitution, partial or complete disassembly, and knowledge accumulated over many years of experience. Often times the diagnosis leads to the realization that the cost of repair exceeds the value of the computer diagnosed. If you have a computer that is over 7 years old and is now running Windows 10 and seems to be very slow, it may be time to replace it with one that has modern components.

Who Provides the Best Computer Repair in California?

The Geek Squad at work

Our local survey shows that you can get computer repair for as little as $35 from some craiglist ads. Plus there are companies such as Geek Squad and My Computer Works who will send someone out to your home or business for as little as $50.00. Often you can take your computer to the Best Buy Geek Squad repair center for a quick $30 repair while you wait. If you have an Apple Macbook you can always take it to the Apple Store and the guys at the Genious Bar can often service it at no charge. However, if you want to hire a real seasoned professional who won't accidently delete all of your documents or destroy your computer, and is not just some pimply faced high school senior, then you will pay a little more.

The Geek Squad

The Geek Squad is BestBuy's own computer repair service. The Geek Squad is staffed by mostly college students and those who are fairly new to the repair industry. Most of their employees are very fresh and new and have little experience. Computer repair is not their main line of business, their business consists of a mix of Audo/Video tasks and computer services. If you call them out to your home, you will often get two employees, one of them training the other. Turn over is quite high and training new people is an endless task at the G.S. For the most part, they are better than average at their jobs.

My Computer Works

My Computer Works is a nationwide computer repair company that charges a flat fee for all the computer services that you will need. In practice, they use offshore/overseas i.e. Phillipines and India based, technicians and screenshare sessions to address most repair tasks. When an onsite visit is needed they hire local technicians on an as needed basis. These technicians get paid per job. Joining their technician pool is a great way to build up your own computer services business.

Apple Store

The Apple Store and its famous Genious Bar is a great place to repair your Apple Products. The Apple Store is usually staffed with well trained Mac and Apple Experts. This is the first place to bring your broken MacBook. If you don't like their answer, then call us.

Thumbtack

Thumbtack does not actually repair computers. Instead, Thumbtack is service to help you find a local technician. The technicians list their services and pay for leads as they come in.
