Customers drive from Clinton, Flemington, Annandale, and across Hunterdon County. Here's what a few of them had to say.
"I drove from Clinton and it was absolutely worth it. My laptop had completely stopped turning on — Dave's diagnosed it same day, recovered all my files, and had it fixed by the next afternoon. Fair price, no runaround."
"Was worried about the drive from Flemington but they quoted me right over the phone and it was way cheaper than the big box store. Dropped it off Monday, picked it up Wednesday. Cracked screen looks brand new."
"Our small business has 6 machines and we've been using Dave's for three years. They always give us a straight answer, never pad the bill, and turnaround is faster than anyone else we've tried. Highly recommend for any Hunterdon County business."
We're in Somerville on N Bridge St. From Clinton, take Route 22 East or I-78 East — straightforward drive with free parking when you arrive.
We don't have a location in Clinton — and we're upfront about that. What we do have is a shop that's been in Somerville since 2011, a team that actually picks up the phone, and a flat-rate process that tells you the cost before anything gets touched.
A lot of Clinton and Hunterdon County residents make the drive because they've tried the alternatives — shipping to a warehouse, waiting weeks, getting vague updates. The 20-minute drive to Somerville ends up being the faster, cheaper option.
Mail-in services and big box stores exist. Here's the honest comparison.
After 15 years of repairs, Clinton and Hunterdon County customers bring us a pretty consistent set of problems. Here's what we see most.
Homes in Clinton and across Hunterdon County tend to run woodstoves, have more dust and pet dander in the air, and go longer between cleanings. We see a higher-than-average rate of overheating shutdowns and thermal failures from customers in rural Hunterdon areas. A yearly cleaning goes a long way — drop it off and we'll run our Sentinel-7 diagnostic to catch anything early.
Every machine we receive goes through our in-house Sentinel-7 stress test protocol developed by Dave. More than 30% of computers that come in "running slow" have a hard drive in early failure. Clinton and Annandale customers especially tend to wait until something stops working entirely — catching it at the sluggish stage makes data recovery far easier and cheaper.
A significant portion of Clinton and Hunterdon County residents work remotely — often on older hardware that was fine for commuting to an office once a week but now runs all day. We see more keyboard failures, degraded batteries, and failing SSDs from this group than almost any other. If your home office machine is over 4 years old, it's worth a diagnostic before it fails mid-meeting.
Fake tech support scams — browser-locking pop-ups pushing you to call a bogus "Microsoft" number — aren't limited to cities. We've seen a steady stream from Clinton, Hampton, and High Bridge. NJ ranks in the top 10 states for cybercrime reports and rural residents are increasingly targeted. If it happened to you, one drop-off visit is almost always all it takes to clean it completely.
The drive to Somerville is worth it. Here's why customers keep coming back.

That's one of the most common things we see and also one of the most diagnosable. Could be a failed hard drive, a dead battery, a bad power jack, or in some cases a motherboard issue. Bring it in — the $75 diagnostic tells you exactly what's going on before we charge anything for repairs.
Yes — all brands. Dell, HP, Lenovo, Asus, Acer, Microsoft Surface, Apple MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, and custom-built desktops. Same flat-rate process applies to everything: diagnostic, quote, your approval, then the repair.
In many cases, yes. Data recovery starts at $199. The earlier you bring it in after a failure, the better the odds. We operate on a no-data, no-charge basis — if we can't recover your files, you won't pay for the attempt.
Your device stays in our Somerville shop the whole time. We don't subcontract repairs or ship to third-party centers. All work is done by our own technicians in-house. If a part needs to be ordered, your machine stays with us until everything's done.
We'll tell you honestly. If the repair cost approaches what the machine is worth, we'll say so — and tell you what we'd recommend instead. You pay the $75 diagnostic fee and leave with a clear picture, not a big bill on a machine that was already on its way out.
Yes — custom builds, gaming rigs, workstation towers. POST failures, GPU issues, overheating, power supply problems — we handle it all. We also build custom PCs from scratch if you're starting fresh.

We fix cracked, black, flickering, and dim screens for all major brands: HP, Dell, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, MSI, Samsung, and Apple MacBook.
