PCC Computers is Wollongong's local computer repair shop and PC parts store, with walk-in locations in Wollongong CBD, Warrawong and Shellharbour. Unlike callout-only tech services, we stock genuine parts on-site — so most laptop, desktop and Mac repairs are diagnosed and fixed the same day you bring your device in. Whether it's a cracked screen, a computer that won't boot, a virus infection, or a business network that's gone down, our in-house technicians repair all major brands, back every job with straightforward pricing, and can build or upgrade your next machine while you wait.

Why choose a local repair shop over a callout service

• Genuine parts in stock — no waiting days for a courier part to arrive before your repair can start.
• Walk in and speak to the technician working on your device — no scheduling a home visit and hoping for a time slot.
• One visit for repair, parts and upgrades — buy a replacement SSD, RAM or a full custom build at the same counter.
• Transparent, itemised quotes before any work begins — no vague "half-hour block" billing.
• Three convenient Illawarra locations: Wollongong CBD, Warrawong Plaza and Shellharbour Stockland.

Same-day service, upfront pricing

Most common repairs — screen swaps, RAM/storage upgrades, virus removal, battery replacement — are completed same day because the part is already on our shelves. For anything requiring a special-order part, we'll confirm the expected turnaround and cost before you commit, so there are no surprises at pickup.

Small business IT support across the Illawarra

PCC Computers supports local Wollongong businesses that don't have an in-house IT team — from single-computer repairs to small office network troubleshooting, hardware refreshes and data backup setup. If a business-critical PC or laptop goes down, our in-store team can prioritise diagnosis and, wherever possible, keep downtime to a same-day turnaround using parts already in stock.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to book, or can I just walk in?

You're welcome to walk in to any of our three stores — Wollongong, Warrawong or Shellharbour — during opening hours. For urgent same-day repairs we recommend calling ahead so we can have a technician ready for your device.

How much does a computer repair cost in Wollongong?

Cost depends on the fault and the part required. We diagnose the issue first and give you an itemised quote before any work begins, so you know the exact cost upfront — there are no hidden hourly-block charges.

How long will my repair take?

Most repairs where the part is in stock — screens, batteries, RAM, storage, virus removal — are completed the same day. If a specific part needs to be ordered, we'll give you an accurate timeframe when we quote the job.

What brands and devices do you repair?

We repair all major laptop and desktop brands, including Dell, HP, Lenovo, Asus, Acer, MSI and Apple Mac devices, along with custom-built desktops and gaming PCs.

Can you recover data from a drive that won't boot?

In most cases, yes. Our technicians can attempt recovery from failed hard drives, SSDs and corrupted drives, and will let you know what's recoverable before proceeding.

Do you repair business computers and networks, not just personal devices?

Yes. We support Wollongong small businesses with computer, laptop and basic network troubleshooting, hardware upgrades and data backup, prioritising fast turnaround to minimise downtime.

Do you sell parts if I want to upgrade instead of repair?

Yes — as a computer store as well as a repair shop, we stock RAM, SSDs, graphics cards and full custom PC builds, so upgrading instead of repairing is often available at the same visit.
