What Robbinsville & Mercer County Residents Should Know
More devices, more problems. Robbinsville has grown a lot, with new developments, the logistics corridor along Route 130, and more remote workers than ever. More devices per household means more wear, more malware exposure and more screens taking a tumble. Small businesses are a target: ransomware and phishing aimed at small companies keep climbing, and Mercer County's mix of logistics, retail and professional offices is right in the crosshairs.
"Won't turn on" doesn't mean "gone." A "completely dead" laptop is often a power problem or a swollen battery that tripped a safety shutoff, not a dead motherboard. Most repairs are worth doing if you catch them early: a cracked screen that still works will eventually fail, and a slow laptop on a failing drive will eventually corrupt files. The $75 diagnostic tells you exactly where you stand.

I engaged "Dave's Computer" to build a new custom build Windows 11 computer as replacement for the Windows 10 machine.
I presented my thoughts and needs to Dave about the new unit and he asked some basic questions as to my needs and want for the new unit. We touched on cost for the unit and I left...
I dropped off my laptop, and Dave gave me a clear overview of the problem (he had experienced similar issues on 3 others of the same model) and the cost. Communication was clear and helpful. Once he started the repairs, he kept me updated. I would absolutely use Dave again!!
I have been going to Dave's Computers for years because he always fixes my problems. I also use his anti-virus and it is as good as any, if not better, than others that I would have to pay much more for. If you're having problems, go to Dave's. He doesn't break the bank and he solves the problems.
Over the last decade or so, whenever I had a computer problem, I went to Dave. I recently had a very worrisome crash; the system failed to boot up. (I hadn't needed to use him for about 3 years.) I paid the "rush fee" on Saturday when dropping the machine off with the weekend agent. By Monday...
"As a Broker of over 40 years in New Jersey I rely on my computer help", which is the artery to my success and business. Thank goodness Dave's is here for me with the messes I get into with scammers, land grabbers and just uneccesary things that I pick up. The most effective virus program have ever...
I had previously tried to build my own PC to no success. Even though right now it is really tough to get a PC built due to the price increases with RAM’s, GPU’s and other parts because of AI, I still really wanted to get one for myself. I came across Dave’s Computers online and went in for a...

How far is Robbinsville from your shop?
About 29 miles and 50 minutes, depending on traffic. Head west toward Princeton and take Route 206 North into Somerville. We're at 75 N Bridge St, Somerville NJ 08876.
Do you offer in-home computer repair in Robbinsville?
Not for homes. Residential repairs are drop-off only at our Somerville shop, because spare parts and overnight testing catch problems a house call misses. If carrying the computer is the hard part, call from our lot and we'll bring it in. More on in-home computer repair in NJ.
For Robbinsville businesses, yes, for projects like network setup, server installs and workstation rollouts.
Is there a fee just to look at my computer?
Yes, a diagnostic: $75 for standard brands like Dell, HP and Lenovo, $149 for custom-built and boutique PCs. Either way it's credited toward the work if you approve the flat quote that follows.

Yes. Small businesses can get monthly managed support, remote support sessions and on-site project work such as network setup. See our IT support plans.

Plan on 48 to 72 hours for most repairs. If you can't wait, rush service is available for an extra $100.
