Westfield drops off with us in Somerville: about 16 miles away.
Go north through Mountainside to Route 22 West and follow it to the North Bridge Street exit. Most Westfield customers are here in about 30 minutes, a bit less on a Saturday morning.
A lot of Westfield runs on a laptop at the kitchen island: remote workdays, the train commute from Westfield station, school portals, and the family photo library all on the same machine. When that laptop quits, the whole week backs up.
That's the kind of repair I built this shop around. You drop the computer off in Somerville, I diagnose it myself, you get a flat price by text, and you decide. No depot, no rotating techs, no membership pitch at the counter.
Whether you're in Wychwood, near Mindowaskin Park, or out by the Garwood line, the drive over is worth it for a repair that's done right the first time.

New PC Setup & Migration
New workstations set up with your software and files moved over from the old machine.
Batteries that won't hold a charge through a workday, fans running loud during video calls, and laptops that slowed to a crawl after a big Windows update. Personal machines that also handle work get a careful approach: I don't wipe anything without asking, and your files stay in the building.
If your employer issued the laptop, check with your IT department before bringing it in; a lot of company machines have to go back to them. For your own computers, including Macs, the laptop repair and Mac repair pages have more detail.

Carrying a desktop and a monitor from the car isn't anyone's idea of fun. Call from our lot when you get here from 07090 and Dave will come out and bring it inside.
A home visit gives a technician an hour and whatever is in the car. The bench gives me spare parts, test equipment and overnight burn-in, so problems get found instead of guessed at. Read why we stopped doing in-home computer repair.

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 Westfield residents ask before they make the drive.
How far is your shop from Westfield?
About 16 miles, roughly 30 minutes. Go north through Mountainside to Route 22 West and take the North Bridge Street exit. The address is 75 N Bridge St, Somerville NJ 08876.
Will you come to my house in Westfield?
For residential customers, no. Every home repair is done on the Somerville bench, where I have parts and test equipment on hand. Curbside drop-off makes it easy: call from the lot and Dave carries it in. Here's why we work that way.
Businesses in Westfield can book on-site project work and remote support.
What does computer repair cost for Westfield customers?
The diagnostic is $75 for Dell, HP, Lenovo and other standard brands, credited toward the repair if you go ahead. Custom-built and boutique gaming PCs are $149, credited toward labor. Repairs are quoted flat after the diagnostic, and data recovery starts at $199.
Can you fix my personal laptop without touching my work files?
Yes. Tell me at drop-off what's on it and what can't be lost. I work on your personal machine without wiping or reinstalling anything unless you approve it first.
My laptop fan is loud on every video call. Is that worth fixing?
Usually. A loud fan tends to mean heat, and heat slows a laptop down and shortens its life. I'll diagnose the cause and quote the fix before doing anything.
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.
Do you fix Macs and PCs?
Yes. Windows laptops and desktops from Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer and custom builders, plus Apple Macs: iMac, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air and Mac mini.
What are your hours?
Mon–Fri 10–5, Sat 9–2, closed Sunday. Walk-ins are welcome during those hours; no appointment needed.
Will my computer leave your shop?
No. It stays in our Somerville shop from drop-off to pickup. Nothing is shipped to a depot or a contractor.
