There's no need to trust your laptop to a courier or a national call centre. GLS Tech is 15 minutes from Stanley town centre — a real workshop in Blackhill, Consett, run by a CompTIA certified engineer. We fix laptops, desktop PCs, gaming rigs and consoles for customers across Stanley, Annfield Plain, South Moor and Craghead every week.
Get Your Device Fixed See What We RepairWhatever's gone wrong — dead laptop, roaring fans, pop-ups that won't go away — we find the actual fault and quote you a fixed price before touching it.
Smashed screens, worn-out batteries, broken hinges, dodgy charging ports and machines that take ten minutes to boot. Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, MacBook — all makes welcome.
Laptop Repairs →
Blue screens, random shutdowns, no display, failed power supplies. We repair home and office desktops and can breathe new life into an ageing machine with an SSD upgrade.
Book PC Repair →
Overheating rigs, GPU faults, thermal paste replacement, and PS5 or Xbox problems — including deep cleans for consoles that sound like jet engines.
Gaming Repairs →
Fake "your computer is infected" warnings, browser hijacks, ransomware and scam software. We clean the infection out properly and show you how to avoid the next one.
Virus Removal →
Failed drive full of family photos? Deleted the wrong folder? We recover files from dead and damaged storage first, before any other repair work risks them.
Recover My Data →
On-site support for Stanley's shops, offices and trades — networks, Wi-Fi, Microsoft 365, backups and security, with a maintenance contract if you want problems handled before you notice them.
Business IT →Straight down the A693 — or don't travel at all. We can collect from Stanley and bring your machine back when it's fixed.
From Stanley town centre it's about 6 miles to our workshop at 24 Derwent Street, Blackhill. Parking nearby, walk-ins welcome — no appointment needed for an initial look.
Can't get to Consett? We arrange collection from Stanley, Annfield Plain, South Moor, Craghead, Tanfield and the surrounding villages, and return your device once it's repaired.
Free diagnosis, then a fixed price before any work starts. If the honest answer is "don't repair it, replace it", that's exactly what we'll tell you.
Your device is handled by a formally qualified engineer holding internationally recognised, exam-based certifications.
CompTIA certifications are vendor-neutral qualifications recognised by Microsoft, Dell, Intel, and the UK government's NCSC — not self-issued badges. When you hand over your laptop or give us access to your business network, you know exactly who you're dealing with.
Drop-off at our Consett workshop, collection from your door, or on-site visits for business customers across the Stanley area.
