RAD Gadget Repair fixes computers at your address anywhere in Lake County, Florida. Laptops, desktops, MacBooks and all-in-ones — diagnosed and repaired at your kitchen table or your office desk, with no drop-off and no week-long wait.
Most computer shops in Lake County work the same way: you unplug the machine, drive it over, leave it for three to seven days, then drive back. For a laptop that holds your work, your photos and your saved passwords, that is a long time to be without it — and you never see who opened it. We do it the other way round. A technician comes to you in Clermont, Eustis, Leesburg, Tavares, Mount Dora, Groveland, Minneola or anywhere else in the county, diagnoses the machine in front of you, quotes a firm price, and in most cases finishes the work the same visit.
Computer Repairs We Do On-Site
Laptop screen replacement
Cracked panel, black screen with a working backlight, flickering, lines down the display, or a hinge that has pulled the bezel apart. We carry panels for the common Lenovo, HP, Dell, Asus and Acer families and fit them on site. Most laptop screen swaps take 45 to 60 minutes.
Laptop battery replacement
If the machine dies the moment you unplug it, or the battery has swollen enough to push the trackpad up, the cell is finished. A swollen battery is also a genuine fire risk and should not be left in the machine — stop charging it and call.
Won’t power on, won’t boot, blue screen
We separate the three things people usually lump together: no power at all (charger, DC jack, board), power but no display (panel, backlight, GPU), and power and display but no boot (drive, Windows, macOS). Diagnosis is free and we tell you which one it is before you spend anything.
Slow computer, virus and malware cleanup
The most common “my computer is dying” call in Lake County turns out to be a failing mechanical hard drive, a startup list forty items long, or adware installed alongside something else. Often the fix is an SSD and a clean install, which makes a seven-year-old laptop feel new for a fraction of a replacement.
SSD and RAM upgrades
Swapping a spinning hard drive for an SSD is the single biggest speed improvement available for an older machine, and we clone the existing drive so nothing is lost — same files, same desktop, same programs, just fast. RAM upgrades help if you keep many browser tabs or run design or accounting software.
Charging ports and DC jacks
If you have to hold the charger at an angle to get it to charge, the jack is worn and will eventually stop entirely. We replace DC jacks and USB-C charging boards.
MacBook and iMac repair
MacBook Air and MacBook Pro screens, batteries, keyboards, trackpads and charging ports, plus iMac drive and RAM work. See our dedicated MacBook repair service for Apple-specific detail.
Data recovery and transfer
Moving to a new machine, or trying to get files off one that no longer boots. If the drive is readable we can usually pull the data on site; genuinely failed drives need a clean-room lab and we will tell you that honestly rather than take your money.
Where We Work in Lake County
Computer repair in Clermont FL
Clermont is our home base and we are there daily — the Kings Ridge and Legends neighbourhoods, the business parks off SR-50, and the newer developments out toward Hancock Road. Full detail on our Clermont computer and laptop repair page.
Computer repair in Eustis FL
Eustis has very little in the way of walk-in computer service, and what exists tends to be drop-off only. We come to the house instead — the Waterman Village communities, the neighbourhoods around Trout Lake, and downtown near Bay Street. See our Eustis service page.
Computer repair in Leesburg FL
Leesburg, Fruitland Park and the communities along US-27 and US-441. If you are in one of the 55-plus communities, a technician at the door beats loading a desktop into a car by a wide margin. See our Leesburg service page.
Computer repair in Tavares and Mount Dora FL
The Golden Triangle gets the same service and the same parts stock as Clermont. We cover Tavares and Mount Dora weekly.
Groveland, Minneola, Mascotte, Montverde and Howey-in-the-Hills
All inside the regular route. See every Lake County location we serve.
Why On-Site Beats a Drop-Off Shop
- You keep the machine. No handing over a laptop full of tax returns and saved logins to a counter and hoping.
- Free diagnosis, fixed price. You hear what is wrong and what it costs before anything is opened, and the number does not move.
- Same day for most jobs. Screens, batteries, SSD swaps and cleanups are finished in one visit.
- No bench fee for saying no. If the repair is not worth doing on your machine, we say so and charge nothing.
- 90-day warranty on parts and labour for every repair.
- Lowest price in Lake County. Bring a written quote from any other local shop and we will beat it.
What It Costs
Diagnosis is free and the quote is firm before work starts. Price depends almost entirely on the part: a laptop battery or an SSD upgrade sits at the low end, a laminated MacBook Retina display at the high end, and most Windows laptop screens fall in between. Software work — virus removal, a clean install, a data transfer — is priced flat rather than hourly so the bill cannot run away from you. Call or text 407-914-2391 with the make and model and you will get a real number on the phone, not a range.
Business and School Computers
We handle small-office fleets, church and non-profit machines, and school devices across Lake County, invoiced together rather than per machine. If you are dealing with a cart of damaged tablets as well, see bulk iPad repair for schools and businesses.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you really come to my house to fix a computer?
Yes. RAD Gadget Repair is mobile-only — there is no shop to visit. A technician drives to your home or office anywhere in Lake County with tools and common parts already on board and works there. For a desktop, a table or a desk is enough; for a laptop, a kitchen counter.
How much does computer repair cost in Clermont FL?
It depends on the fault and the part. Diagnosis is free and you get a firm, fixed price before any work starts, so there is no risk in finding out. Call or text 407-914-2391 with your make and model for an exact figure.
Can you fix a laptop that will not turn on?
Usually, yes. “Will not turn on” is normally a charger, a DC jack, a failed battery or a board fault, and the first three are straightforward repairs. We test all of them on site at no charge and tell you which it is before quoting.
Will I lose my files?
Not in a normal repair. Screen, battery, port and RAM work never touches the drive. For drive replacements and SSD upgrades we clone the old drive so everything comes across — files, programs and settings. If a drive has already failed we attempt recovery first and tell you honestly what is recoverable.
Do you fix Macs as well as PCs?
Both. MacBook Air and Pro screens, batteries, keyboards and charging ports, iMac drives and memory, plus the full range of Windows laptops and desktops — Lenovo, HP, Dell, Asus, Acer and custom builds.
How long does a computer repair take?
Most on-site jobs are finished in 45 to 90 minutes. A clean install with a data transfer takes longer because the copy itself takes time, and in those cases we will often start the transfer, leave it running, and return the same day.
Do you serve Eustis and Leesburg, or only Clermont?
The whole county. Eustis, Leesburg, Tavares, Mount Dora, Groveland, Minneola, Mascotte, Montverde, Howey-in-the-Hills and Ferndale are all on the regular route, at the same prices as Clermont, with no travel fee.
