Frequently Asked Questions | Proton Support London

Have questions about your computer repair or data recovery? Find fast, straightforward answers from our family team below.

Do I need to book an appointment to drop off my computer?

Yes, absolutely. Because we operate from a highly secure private home workshop off North End Road, we work strictly by appointment only. This ensures our bench environment remains safe and allows our technicians to give your device their full, undivided attention. Please call or WhatsApp us to book your exact time slot before visiting.

How long does a standard PC or Apple Mac repair take?

Most standard hardware fixes–such as a laptop screen replacement, battery installation, or keyboard swap–are completed on a same-day or next–day turnaround once parts are verified. Complex motherboard micro–soldering or extensive liquid damage cleaning can take 2–3 working days depending on the structural fault.

What is your No-Fix, No-Fee and Diagnostic policy?

We provide a Free Initial Diagnosis for the first 30 minutes of inspecting your device. If the issue is standard, the diagnosis is 100% free. If a complex hardware fault requires deeper technical bench testing beyond 30 minutes, a standard inspection fee applies (£25 PC / £35 Laptop / £45 Mac / £55 Gaming Rig), which is completely waived if you proceed with our recommended repair quote. If we do not possess the technical knowledge to fix your device, you pay nothing.

Can Dr D recover files from a completely dead hard drive?

Yes. Our resident storage expert, Dr D, brings over 30 years of advanced data recovery experience to our static-controlled lab. We securely extract files, documents, and photos from physically clicking hard drives, failed SSDs, water-damaged mobile phones, and corrupted USB flash sticks under a strict No Data, No Fee guarantee. We accept local drop-offs or tracked mail-ins from across the UK and worldwide.
