For customers in Wye looking for an independent computer repair shop rather than a chain or an online courier service, Advantec Computing in Tenterden is a sensible option. The drive is around 30 minutes, and we help Wye customers with PC repairs, laptop problems, Mac issues, virus removal, data recovery and email or Outlook support.
Wye sits a little further out, with Chilham, Boughton Lees and the Ashford area between you and us. Plenty of Wye customers still prefer the personal service of a small local workshop over shipping a laptop off to a depot — and we will always tell you what we find before any work or cost is agreed.
Slow laptops, broken or flickering screens, charging faults, dead batteries, overheating, sticky or dead keyboards — we diagnose the actual issue first and then recommend an honest course of action.

More about Mac repairsIf a drive has failed or your computer will not start, please stop using it and call us. Continuing to run a failing drive often makes things worse. We will set realistic expectations before any recovery attempt.
More about data recoveryScam pop-ups, fake antivirus warnings, browser hijacks, ransomware — we clean the device properly and explain how to spot the same trap next time. No fear-driven upsells.
More about virus removalIf your laptop or desktop has slowed down but is otherwise sound, an SSD upgrade is usually the most cost-effective improvement you can make. We clone your existing setup so everything stays as it was.
