DB Computing in short
DB Computing is a computer shop on Market Street in Wellington, covering repairs, hardware upgrades, networking and cabling, laptop sales and data recovery for home and business machines. The company record is live since 2018. You can walk in: a free in-store test and a quote before any work starts are promised on the site, with stated opening hours, plus phone and a contact form.
Customer reviews stand at 4.9 from 158 Google ratings. Microsoft qualifications are listed on the business's own website. What counts against DB Computing is paperwork: no repair rates, call-out fee or VAT position are published, and no insurance details appear. If you want a faulty laptop tested free before committing, this is the counter built for it.
Our verdict
Our judgement: DB Computing suits you if you want a walk-in shop to take a faulty laptop to, with a free test, a quote up front and data recovery on the bench [1] [3]. What counts against it is the paperwork: no prices beyond the promise of a quote, and no insurance or accreditation details. The company record is live since 2018 [2].

Questions about DB Computing
Is DB Computing any good?
On the evidence, yes for walk-in repairs: it sits second in our Telford IT support table, holds 4.9 from 158 Google ratings, and promises a free in-store test with a quote before any work starts [1] [3]. No rates or insurance details are published. Take the faulty machine to the Market Street shop for the free test.
Is DB Computing registered with a trade scheme?
There is no mandatory register for IT support. Microsoft qualifications membership is listed on the business's own website, which is where trade schemes are sourced for this round [1]. Nothing beyond that is claimed. Ask for the current membership details with your quote.
What does DB Computing charge?
It promises a free in-store test and a quote before any work, but publishes no repair rates, call-out fee or VAT position [1]. That means the quote does the talking: describe the fault and ask for an itemised fixed price. Confirm whether VAT is included before you leave the machine.
Where does DB Computing work?
The shop sits on Market Street in Wellington, serving home and business users across Telford and Shrewsbury [1]. Walk-in visits suit anyone nearby with a machine to carry. Send your postcode with the enquiry if you need a call-out rather than a counter visit.
How is DB Computing ranked?
It ranks second of the seven IT support companies in our September round, picked for walk-in repairs, upgrades and data recovery on customer evidence and a clear quote promise. No prices or insurance details are published. Read the full review, then ask for the itemised quote.
