Brought my iPhone 13 in with a smashed screen and it was fixed same day. Really professional service and the price was fair.

Why customers choose Microsmith for computer repairs
Local computer repair shop in Newport
We are based in Newport and work on computers for customers across the area. No posting away, no waiting weeks for a return.
Clear diagnosis before major work
We identify the fault first and explain it clearly before recommending any significant repair. You will not be charged for work you did not agree to.
Hardware and software faults
Whether it is a physical component failure or a software issue causing problems, we investigate both and advise on the right fix.
Upgrade options available
Sometimes a repair is not the only answer. We will tell you if an upgrade — such as a new SSD or extra memory — would be a better option for your machine.
Honest advice on older machines
If a repair is not economical for the age and value of your computer, we will say so. We would rather save you money than carry out unnecessary work.
Home users and businesses welcome
We work with individuals, families, small businesses, schools and organisations. Whether it is a home PC or an office computer, we can help.

Desktop PCs and tower computers
Standard desktop and tower PCs — including custom-built systems, pre-built home computers and older machines brought back into use.
All-in-one computers
All-in-one PCs where the computer and screen are combined — including hardware faults, screen issues and software problems. For Apple iMac specifically, see our dedicated page.
Home computers
Home desktop computers of any age or make — including slow, unreliable or no longer booting machines. We advise honestly on whether repair, upgrade or replacement makes the most sense.
Office and business computers
Office PCs, workstations and business-owned computers repaired and serviced. We also support schools and organisations with hardware faults, upgrades and diagnosis.
Once the issue is identified we will explain the problem, the recommended repair, and whether the work is worthwhile based on the age and value of the machine. You choose whether to proceed — there is no pressure.
Repair or upgrade — we will advise on the best option
Sometimes a slow or unreliable computer does not need replacing. A storage upgrade, extra memory or a system clean-up can often make a major difference to performance at a fraction of the cost of a new machine.
Where a repair is not cost-effective we will tell you. If a sensible upgrade or replacement would be better value, we will say so.
Computer repairs for businesses, schools and organisations
We do not only repair consumer devices. Microsmith also supports business, education and organisation-owned equipment. If you have office PCs or workshop computers needing repair, diagnosis or upgrade, we can help.
Computer repair questions
Do you repair desktop computers?
Yes, we repair many types of desktop computers, including tower PCs, all-in-one systems and office computers.
Can you fix a computer that will not turn on?
Yes. We can diagnose no-power and no-boot faults, including power supply, motherboard, storage and software-related issues.
Do you repair slow computers?
Yes. Slow computers are often caused by failing drives, low memory, software problems, overheating or general system issues. We identify the cause before recommending a fix.
Do you repair business computers?
Yes. We help home users as well as businesses, schools and organisations with desktop computer repairs and upgrades.
Is it worth repairing an old computer?
That depends on the fault, the age of the machine and the cost of parts. We will give you honest advice on whether repair is worthwhile — and suggest an upgrade or replacement if that makes more sense.
