P.L.R. Computers

Dec 2022

Been using this shop for well over 10 years. They can fix anything, fast! I've brought them lots of broken laptops, many with motherboard issues and many (lots of) PCB boards from cars. As an IT tech and Auto mechanic, this shop is my only true go-to.

For frugal dudes like myself who would rather hang on to a workhorse laptop computer that has been reliable rather than cave to forced obsolescence, this place is nirvana. After calling around to replace the screen on my HP Pavilion notebook, which is about five and a half years old (and just eight months prior had a solid state drive replace my original hard drive), I was frustrated by the responses I was getting. One guy said he couldn't in good conscience fix something that would likely turn into a money pit and tried convincing me to upgrade to something new. Another quoted me a price that exceeded what my IT guy suggested I'd pay. A third didn't bother to call me back after a first brief chat where I had an unanswered question. Finally, I connected with someone who seemed reasonable, but he referred me to Jim at Portland Laptop Repair -- noting that he was the best possible resource. Talk about truth in advertising. He was spot on. Jim not only gave me a reasonable quote, but also said the type of screen I needed based on the model number was one of the most popular, and he had it in stock. Same-day repair: What a concept! So I dropped off the laptop after lunch the day after July 4th and picked it up a few hours later. He couldn't have been more knowledgeable or kinder. And his parting words: "there's a 90-day warranty in case you have any trouble, but even if something happens on day 95, just bring it in, and I'll take care of it." Jim was as professional as they come. And now he's pretty much on speed dial in case something else goes wrong. Pay him a visit. You'll be glad you did!

When I started to experience problems with my high-end gaming PC I searched around for a proessional to help with the stuttering issues and other performance problems I was having with my PC. I had no idea then but I had found an absolute gem of a small business (Portland Laptop Repair). Jim was so straightforward and honest about what I needed and the costs and timeline associated with fixing my problems. Not only was it as fast as it gets (I had multpile parts replaced which were ordered, delivered, and installed within 2 days, but my computer was up and running better than it had been since I bought it. On top of it all the pricing was super conservative and he never overcharged for any service or charged me multiple labor fees for problems that came up after the fact. Not to mention all the service comes with a warranty and he has been more than happy to take it back in to look at it when I had some questions. Thanks so much Jim, trust me this is your guy for pc repair!!!
