how it works
Free
Bring in your laptop, desktop, Mac or gaming PC, explain what's happening, and talk with us about the best next step. If the computer requires bench testing, disassembly or more extensive troubleshooting, we'll explain what is involved before checking it in — and we'll tell you what we found and what the repair costs before proceeding. Customers call that helpful and reasonably priced. Popups and fake warnings usually mean virus and malware removal, and you can book a drop-off time before you come in.
An SSD and more memory changes how a computer feels day to day. Here's where you notice it.
A lot of computers people are ready to replace just need a solid-state drive and more memory. This is a visual illustration of where you feel the difference — not a benchmark of your specific machine. We'll tell you what your computer would actually gain before you spend anything.
Affordable Computer Repair is a local, independently operated Bellevue shop. The technician who tests your computer is the one who explains the repair options clearly, and keeps you updated along the way.
We diagnose before we replace
Blue screens, boot failures, overheating and slow startups can all trace back to different faults. We test storage, memory, power and thermals to find the cause, then tell you what we found and what the repair costs.
30-day guarantee on our work
Steven guarantees his work: you have 30 days from the day you pick up your computer to check it over. If the trouble is related to the original reason for service, there is no additional labor charge to make it right.
Fair pricing, plainly stated
Affordable is in the name for a reason. You get the cost up front and a choice at every step — which is why reviews mention fair pricing and an honest recommendation.
We give back locally
Each week we donate repair labor to a qualifying single parent through our Single Parent Program, plus free e-waste recycling for the community.

“I'm a 69 year old retired Vet who needs to keep an eye on the world still. My vehicle of choice has changed from a plane to a computer. Its arteries got clogged and these surgeons fixed 'em right on up and I'm back to watching again! Great friendly service.”
