Getting here from Eton

Datchet is just downriver from Eton, and our workshop is 2 miles from the centre of Eton by road.

  • By train 4 minutes

    Eton has no station, so walk over Windsor Bridge to Windsor & Eton Riverside, about 7 minutes. South Western Railway trains run every 30 minutes during the day on weekdays.

  • By car About 10 minutes

    You can’t drive over Windsor Bridge, so head up the High Street (the B3022), take Pococks Lane (the B3026), then turn right onto Slough Road (the B376) into Datchet.

Before you visit

Before you set off

Three things worth knowing, whether you walk over or drive.

  • Carry a cracked MacBook flat Close the lid gently and carry it flat in a padded bag, so loose glass doesn’t do more damage on the way.
  • Check your iPhone’s battery Go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health. If the maximum capacity is below 80%, a new battery makes a real difference.
  • Spilt a drink on it? Switch it off, don’t charge it and bring it in as soon as you can. See liquid damage repair.

    “Took my mac laptop in, they correctly diagnosed the issue with regards to the battery swelling and no longer taking charge. Turn around was a little over 24 hours to order part, get repaired and get it back to me. Excellent service, thanks.”

    “Highly recommend. I called Kyle in regards to an issue where my iMac wouldn’t proceed past the Apple logo on the main screen. We discussed the options and I dropped it in the following day. I had been given a 5-7 day lead time elsewhere, however it was ready for collection the same afternoon at a much more affordable cost than some of the quotes I had been given. Highly recommend and will be passing details on to friends and family!”

    “The owner Kyle seemed really passionate and knowledgable about anything computers! I asked him to replace my thermal paste on a MacBook Pro as well as give the internals a dusting. He did exactly that as well as show me before and after pics which is nice actually. I'd rather go to him than Apple TBH.”

Common questions

Questions from Eton

Can I get to you from Eton without a car?

Yes. Eton has no station of its own, so walk over Windsor Bridge to Windsor & Eton Riverside station, about 7 minutes from Eton, and take the train to Datchet, which takes 4 minutes. Trains run every 30 minutes during the day on weekdays, and we’re a minute’s walk from Datchet station.

Why does the drive from Eton go up the High Street first?

Windsor Bridge has been closed to cars since 1970 and is for pedestrians and cyclists only. So by car, the quickest way is up the High Street, along Pococks Lane and into Datchet on Slough Road.

Do you cover Eton Wick?

Yes. From Eton Wick, Eton Wick Road (the B3026) brings you into Eton, and then it’s the same route along Pococks Lane, about 3.5 miles in all.

Can you replace a MacBook screen the same day?

Same day where possible, when we have the screen for your model in stock. MacBook screens start from £129.99 and come with a 6 month warranty.
