Computer tune-up · Jacksonville, NC

Bring it back to life.

Slow boot, loud fans, hot to the touch, takes forever to open a browser? Most computers don't need replacement. They need a proper tune-up. $80–$150 and you'll notice the difference the same day.

What's included

Every tune-up. Same checklist.

No skipping steps to finish faster. Every machine gets the full process — software cleanup, physical cleaning, and a real-world speed test before I leave.

Software cleanup.

Bloatware uninstall, startup program audit, malware scan, browser cache purge, temp files cleaned out, Windows updates applied properly. Most "slow PCs" are 80% fixed right here.

Physical clean-out.

Open the case (or laptop chassis), compressed air through the fans and heatsinks, replace dried thermal paste on CPU. This single step alone often drops CPU temps 15–25°C and brings fan noise back to normal.

Driver & performance check.

Drivers refreshed where needed, SSD health checked, RAM tested, power profile tuned. I walk you through what I found and recommend if a hardware upgrade (usually an SSD) would help further.

Honest expectation setting

What the tune-up can & can't do.

A tune-up makes a healthy machine run like it did when it was new. It doesn't turn old hardware into new hardware. Here's the line.

Big wins.

Slow boot, hot/loud fans, sluggish browser, app launch lag, full-disk warnings, "Windows is updating" forever — these almost always come back to life. Real, noticeable speed improvement same day.

Honest answers.

If your machine has 4GB of RAM and a spinning hard drive, no amount of cleanup will make it feel modern. I'll tell you straight — tune-up gets you 30% back; an SSD swap (another $100–$150 in parts and labor) gets you the rest of the way.

When to replace.

If repair + upgrade costs more than 40% of a new equivalent, I'll say so. I'd rather you spend your money on the right thing than pay me for a band-aid you're going to replace in 6 months.

Pricing

One number, all in.

Tune-up pricing is based on what your machine actually needs — not how long it takes me. Software-only is the floor; major dust-out and thermal paste work is the ceiling.

On-site work: travel fee varies by distance — most common is $25. Quoted on the phone before I head out.

Old laptop. New life.

Tell me what it's doing and I'll tell you what a tune-up will get you. Most jobs done in one visit.
