Tech-Nic Repairs: computer and e-bike battery repair in Bristol

Tech-Nic Repairs is an electronics repair workshop based in Hanham, in the Bristol area, serving both individuals and businesses and schools. Its activity combines computer and laptop repair with a specialised service for e-bike, e-scooter and mobility scooter batteries, as well as 3D printing and sales of refurbished laptops.

Computer repair services

The workshop covers a wide range of interventions on PCs and laptops. Among the services it details are general device repair, virus and malware removal, and system optimisation through cleaning temporary files, adjusting settings and updating drivers. It also offers custom PC building based on the customer's needs and budget, without the customer needing any prior technical knowledge.

The company also repairs Apple Mac devices and gaming consoles, and sells new and refurbished laptops with warranty. For devices that cannot be repaired, it offers recycling and secure data destruction services.

E-bike and electric mobility batteries

Tech-Nic has expanded its activity to the maintenance and repair of lithium batteries for e-bikes, e-scooters and mobility scooters. The service includes battery re-celling, a technical operation that requires certified handling of lithium cells. The company states that one of its co-founders holds CompTIA A+ certification and specific training in class 9 lithium battery handling.

3D printing and equipment sales

In addition to repair, the workshop offers 3D printing services and has a shop where it sells laptops refurbished by the company itself, presented as high-end devices with performance similar to a new device at a lower price.

Service for individuals, businesses and schools

The company structures its offering according to the type of customer. For home users it repairs Windows PCs, Macs and consoles, with the option of device collection. For small and medium-sized businesses it provides IT services including resolution of common issues such as printer jams, computer diagnostics, equipment recycling and secure data destruction. For schools it offers specific packages for updating, cleaning, refurbishing and repairing laptops and desktop computers, as well as a computer recycling service.

Repair process and geographic coverage

The process begins with requesting a diagnostic, which the customer can request by phone, email, web form or message. Once the device is received, the technicians examine it, explain the problem and provide a quote and an estimated timeframe. If the customer accepts, the repair proceeds. The device can be delivered to the workshop or sent by post with prior authorisation; for customers in Bristol and Bath who cannot travel, the company arranges collection from home or office for a call-out fee.

The company states it covers most areas of Bristol and Bath, and presents itself as a provider of IT and electronic support in Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset. Its workshop is located in Hanham, just off the Avon Ring Road, at the rear of Hanham Hall.

Repair philosophy and company details

The company cites the problem of electronic waste, with 53 million tonnes generated annually, as an argument for extending the lifespan of devices. It presents itself as a VAT-registered partnership in the United Kingdom, with number 324 7286 95, and states over ten years of experience in IT support.
