"Brought in my old desktop that was running slower than a turtle. They diagnosed it for free, recommended an SSD upgrade, and now it feels like a brand new machine. Saved me hundreds! Great work."

Do you offer same-day computer repair in Oceanside and Encinitas?

Yes — most common software issues, virus removal, SSD upgrades, RAM upgrades, and straightforward laptop screen replacements are same-day when you drop off in the morning and parts are in stock. Motherboard-level work, custom-ordered parts, and data recovery usually take 1–5 business days. Call ahead if you need a confirmed same-day turnaround: we'll tell you honestly whether it fits today's queue.

How much does computer repair cost at PC Repair Center?

We offer a free pre-check (visual inspection and basic boot test) and a $69 full diagnostic that is credited back to your repair bill if you move forward. Typical in-store repairs range from $89 for a tune-up to $189–$400 for hardware work like screen replacements, SSD upgrades, and most data recoveries. You get a written quote before any work starts — no surprise charges.

Do you work on both PCs and Macs?

Yes. We service Windows laptops and desktops (Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, MSI, custom builds), MacBooks and iMacs (Intel and Apple Silicon), and gaming PCs. We also handle Linux systems, Chromebooks, and game consoles for HDMI port work.

Do you offer a warranty on repairs?

Every repair at our Oceanside and Encinitas shops comes with a 60-day workmanship warranty covering the specific work we performed and any parts we installed. If the same issue comes back within 60 days, bring it in and we'll make it right at no additional labor cost.

Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?

Walk-ins are welcome at both our Oceanside (2401 Vista Way, Ste B) and Encinitas (384 N El Camino Real) locations during business hours. You don't need an appointment for diagnostics or drop-off. If you want a specific technician or a confirmed pickup time, booking ahead via our /booking page saves you a wait.

Can you recover data from a dead laptop or failed hard drive?

Yes — data recovery is one of our specialties. We recover from HDDs, SSDs, USB drives, SD cards, and RAID/NAS arrays, including drives that won't boot, are clicking, or have been accidentally formatted. Free evaluation, written quote, and a no-data-no-fee policy on approved Level 1 and Level 2 recoveries. See /data-recovery for full details.
