DB Computing review
Ranked 2 of 10 in Mobile computer repair in Telford
Best for: Wellington laptop and computer repairs with free testing
Active
Trading as DB Computing Limited · 17 Market St, Wellington, Telford, Shropshire, TF1 1DT · Service area: Telford, Shrewsbury
DB Computing in short
DB Computing is a Wellington repair counter run by two named engineers, David and Craig, covering software and hardware between them with Microsoft qualifications on record. Any machine brought in store gets a free test and a quote before work starts, so you agree the cost while the device is still untouched, and the company record is there to check.
Customer reviews are excellent, with 4.9 from 158 Google ratings across the sources we hold. Our judgement: DB Computing suits a household that wants familiar faces behind the counter and testing before spending. Free testing and quotes before work set it apart; missing rates and cover detail count against it.
The counter is the whole offer: no call-out van, no postal route, no business contracts. Anyone who needs the fixer to travel will find more in the home-visit firms; their quotes are the thing to compare.
Our verdict
Our judgement: DB Computing suits you if you want a small Wellington firm where the same engineers test, quote and repair your machine, with a strong review record behind them [1] [4]. Free testing and quotes before work set it apart; the absence of published rates and cover details counts against it [1] [2].

Questions about DB Computing
Is DB Computing any good?
On the evidence, yes for household repairs: it sits second in our Telford table, holds 4.9 from 158 Google ratings and tests every machine free before quoting. The gaps are published rates and insurance detail. Worth doing: take the poorly machine in for the free test first.
Is DB Computing Microsoft qualified?
Microsoft qualifications for its two engineers are listed on the firm's own about page. That is a vendor claim on the business's site rather than a register entry, and this trade has no mandatory registration. The company itself is active on the public company record.
What does DB Computing charge?
A free in-store test and a quote before work are promised, booked through the site's free-quote routes. No rate card or VAT position is published, so bigger jobs rest on the individual figure. Include the symptoms in your booking and expect the quote before anything is touched.
Where does DB Computing work?
The counter stands on Market Street in Wellington, and the firm names Telford and Shrewsbury as its patch. Call in with the machine or use the phone and contact form. Include your postcode in the enquiry to confirm you are covered.
How is DB Computing ranked?
It ranks second of the ten firms in our September round, carried by free testing, named engineers and a strong review record. Missing published rates and cover detail hold it back. The score bars beside its card show the breakdown.
