Practical support

From testing to the right replacement battery

Battery-health diagnosisWe test charge capacity and overall battery health, then explain the results and whether a replacement is actually needed.
Rapid drain & not chargingA battery may be worn out if it drains quickly or refuses to charge. We check whether the fault is in the battery or somewhere else before recommending a replacement.
Unexpected shutdownsLaptops that switch off with charge remaining usually have a battery that can no longer deliver power reliably.
Swollen-battery safetyA swollen battery is a safety risk. Stop using the laptop, unplug it and contact us. We’ll remove it carefully.
The right battery for your modelLaptop batteries are model-specific. We match the correct part to your exact laptop model before any replacement.
Careful replacement & disposalThe old battery is removed carefully and disposed of responsibly through battery recycling, never in household rubbish.
Post-install charging & health checksAfter fitting the battery, we check that the laptop charges correctly and reports the new battery properly.
Not sure it’s the battery?We’ll test it and tell you what we find. If the battery is still serviceable, we’ll say so.

If the battery is swollen or getting hot, stop charging the laptop, unplug it and contact us.

I keep the pricing simple and will explain the likely cost before we start.

If there’s a simpler or more cost-effective way to handle the job, I’ll let you know. And if I don’t think something is worth repairing, I’ll tell you that too.

Before I start

About me

Hi, I’m Nathan

I’ve been working in IT support for around 15 years.

NK Tech Support is a small local business, so when you call or send a message, you’re dealing directly with me. I’m also the person who’ll be doing the work. I help with the sorts of technology problems that can be frustrating when you just want things to work properly. I’ll explain what’s going on in normal language, give you your options, and let you decide what you want to do.

Your privacy

I only access what’s needed to fix the problem and won’t copy your files without permission. During remote support, you can see what I’m doing and end the session at any time. Where possible, you’ll enter your own passwords.

What happens next

How it works

Tell me what’s going wrong. I’ll recommend whether remote support, an on-site visit or a drop-off repair makes the most sense.

Get in touch

Call, text or send me a message and tell me what’s going wrong. You don’t need to know the technical name for the problem. Just describe what’s happening as best you can.

I’ll work out the best way to help

Some problems are best handled remotely, some need an on-site visit, and others are better suited to a drop-off repair. I’ll explain the options and what they’re likely to cost.

We arrange what works

For remote support, we’ll arrange a time to connect. For an on-site visit, I’ll arrange a suitable time to come to you. For a drop-off repair, we’ll arrange a time for you to bring the device in.
