Quick answer
Can my printer be repaired?
Most laser and inkjet faults are repairable – worn pickup rollers, fuser units, drums, print heads, sensors and paper paths. We assess the printer, explain the fault and quote in writing before any work.
If a cheap inkjet is not worth fixing we tell you honestly and can offer a good-value replacement from our shop.

Why prices start “from”

- Number of printers on site
- Workshop vs on-site
- Maintenance contract or once-off
inspection + quote
Whether it is CCTV, access control, alarms, electric fencing, printers, computers or fibre, you pay one fixed call-out of R650. It covers the visit, a full site inspection and an itemised written quote – so the price you approve is built around your property, not a guess. The call-out is charged on every visit and is not deducted from your quote or invoice.
