Wide Range of Help, One Straightforward Price
Computer problems have a habit of arriving at the worst possible time. Emails stop sending before a deadline, Wi-Fi drops in the middle of a call, or an old laptop freezes when you need it most. Cornwall Tech offers calm, practical support from £35 per hour, with honest guidance on what should be repaired, what can be improved, and what is no longer worth the spend.
We work with households, remote workers, retirees, and small local businesses across Falmouth and nearby towns. Whether you need a one-off fix or regular help keeping everything running, we can come to you and sort things properly.
What We Help With
Virus and Malware Removal
If your device is showing pop-ups, running slowly, or redirecting you to strange websites, we will remove malware safely and harden settings to reduce future risk.
Slow PC Tune-Ups
Long startup times and laggy performance are often fixable. We clean startup processes, remove clutter, optimise storage, and recommend practical upgrades where needed.
Laptop Repairs and Screen Replacements
From cracked screens and broken hinges to charging-port faults, we diagnose hardware issues and provide clear options before any spend.
Data Recovery
Accidentally deleted files, damaged drives, or failing laptops can be stressful. We recover data where possible and put a safer backup routine in place afterwards.
Software Support
Installations, update failures, licence transfer problems, and application crashes are common and fixable. We keep software tidy and stable.
Windows and Mac Help
We support both platforms and mixed-device households. If you have a PC at home and a MacBook for work, we can keep both running cleanly.
Wi-Fi and Home Network Fixes
Weak signal upstairs? Smart TV buffering? Printer not connecting? We diagnose router setup, interference, and placement to improve coverage and reliability.
Custom Builds
Need a machine for editing, gaming, or office work? We can advise on parts, build to budget, and set up everything so it’s ready out of the box.
New Device Setup
When you buy a new laptop, tablet, or desktop, we transfer files, configure email, secure accounts, and make sure everything is usable on day one.
Tech Tuition
One-to-one tuition for email, online safety, file organisation, and day-to-day confidence. Patient support at your pace.
Gadget Advice
Not sure what to buy? We provide unbiased buying advice based on your real use, so you avoid overspending on features you do not need.
Who We Help
We regularly work with families, retirees, home workers, sole traders, and small teams who need dependable support without corporate contracts. Many customers call us after trying to fix issues themselves and losing hours in the process. We provide the quick path to a working setup.

Why Choose Us
Customers stay with Cornwall Tech because we are honest and approachable. We explain options in plain English, quote clearly, and never pressure you into unnecessary replacements. If a simple fix is all you need, that is exactly what we do. If a replacement is better value, we tell you that too.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our computer services start from £35 per hour. Most common jobs — virus removal, tune-ups, software installation — take between one and two hours. We’ll always give you an honest estimate before we start, and there are no hidden fees.
Yes — we offer on-site visits across Falmouth, Penryn, and the surrounding area. We can come to your home or office to diagnose and fix the problem. For some repairs, it may be quicker to bring the device to our base, and we’ll always advise you honestly on the best option.
Absolutely. We work with Windows PCs, Apple Macs, laptops of all brands, and most tablets. Whether it’s a software issue, a hardware repair, or just getting a new device set up, we can help.
It depends on the age, condition, and the cost of the repair. As a rule of thumb, if the repair costs more than a third of the price of a decent replacement, a new machine might be better value. We’ll always give you an honest assessment — we’d rather you spent your money wisely than pay for a repair that’s not worth it.
