Computer Repair for Rocky Hill NJ, a Small Borough With Busy Computers
Rocky Hill is one of the smallest towns we serve, and a lot of the people who live there work from a home office or carry a laptop to work in Princeton every day. When that one machine stops working, there's no repair bench down the street to walk it to.
At Dave's Computers in Somerville, I do every repair myself. You drop the computer off, I diagnose it, and you get a flat quote by text before any work starts. Nothing gets shipped out to a depot.
From the historic houses on Washington Street to the newer streets near the Millstone River and the canal path, the drive is the same: out to Route 206 and north. Most of it is one road.

Apple Mac Service
MacBook Air and Pro battery and screen replacement, iMac storage upgrades, and Macs that won't boot. Diagnosed on my bench, never mailed out.
A laptop that rides back and forth between Rocky Hill and an office every day wears out differently than one that never leaves the desk. On my bench that looks like cracked screens from bags and car seats, batteries that only last an hour, loose hinges, and coffee that found its way into the keyboard. I'll tell you which repair is worth doing and which isn't.
Bringing a desktop tower or an all-in-one from Rocky Hill? Call from the parking lot and Dave will come out, carry it in, and carry it back out to your car when it's ready.
Finding a failing part means testing it against known-good parts, sometimes for hours. That happens on a workbench with parts on the shelf, not at a kitchen table. Here's why in-shop repair works better.

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...
What Rocky Hill residents ask before they make the trip.
How far is it from Rocky Hill to your shop?
About 14 miles and 25 minutes: Washington Street west to Route 206, then north into Somerville. We're at 75 N Bridge St, Somerville NJ 08876.
Do you have a location in Rocky Hill?
No. There is one shop, in Somerville, and every repair happens there. Rocky Hill customers drop off and pick up at the Somerville shop.
Will you come to my house in Rocky Hill?
Not for home repairs. Residential work is done on the Somerville bench, where the parts and test equipment are. Curbside drop-off keeps it easy: call from the lot and Dave carries it in. Here's why we work that way.
Small businesses in Rocky Hill can book on-site project work and remote support.
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 is credited toward the work if you approve the flat quote that follows.
My work laptop has a cracked screen and a weak battery. Can you do both?
Usually, yes. After the diagnostic you get one flat quote that covers everything the laptop needs, and you choose what to approve. If the laptop belongs to your employer, check with them first, since some companies have their own repair rules.
Do you serve Kingston and Griggstown too?
Yes. Customers from Kingston, Griggstown and the rest of the area around Rocky Hill drop off with us. Most come up Route 206.
How long will my computer be at the shop?
Plan on 48 to 72 hours for most repairs. If you can't wait, rush service is available for an extra $100.
Which brands do you work on?
Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, MSI and custom-built PCs, plus MacBook, iMac and Mac mini. I don't service Surface devices or Chromebooks.
What are your hours?
Mon–Fri 10–5, Sat 9–2, closed Sunday. Walk-ins are welcome during those hours; no appointment needed.
Who actually works on my computer?
I do. Dave's Computers has one technician, the same one since 2011, and every computer stays in the Somerville shop until you pick it up.
