I have gone to multiple repair shops for my laptop and PCs and I can definitively say that this is my favorite shop. My last visit I had taken my laptop in to repair a broken screen. Before the end of the day, Julio calls me and explains that while taking it apart, there is an issue with the heatsink not touching the CPU. He gave me a fair estimate and had my laptop ready the very next morning. I cannot recommend them enough! read more

I recently upgraded my PC, but it kept failing to boot Windows. I brought my PC to this business on a Tuesday and no progress was made by Friday. The technician came in only once during that time and only managed to disassemble my PC. The associate who greeted me each day did not have any knowledge regarding the progress of my repairs. Frustrated with the lack of progress, I took back my PC. It was returned to me with a missing SATA cable that I will now have to replace. I will now have to travel 30 miles to a technician who I know will resolve my issue within a day or two because he actually shows up for more than a few hours a week. I am super disappointed because I originally went here based on great reviews. I will not return here. read more

For years I have depended on the Geek Squad, well those days are over. I saw a review for Zap Computer Repair in Whittier, had been in business for 27 years, (I liked that) called and set an appointment. Julio was fantastic, kind, and professional, didn't make me feel incompetent when I told him I didn't feel I could put it back together, if I had to take it apart. Took it to his shop, cleaned it up, added a little kick to it, and it's back all within a week! No hidden charges, his estimated price was spot on. He actually called after a couple of days to enquire about how I was doing. I laughed, and told him "works so fast, it makes me dizzy" No more Geek Squad, waiting weeks for an appointment, or insisting I bring it in. Not to mention the customer service is very rude! As long as I have a computer, I will always use Zap! read more

Julio great customer service had what we were looking for , & for a affordable price! I recommend this place anytime !

Julio is amazing!!! I took in my Asus ZenBook which is about 5 years old and he took care of me right away. Super friendly, and not intimidating like other repair techs seem to be. His prices are extremely reasonable and his kindness makes for such a pleasurable experience. I've already recommended him to friends and family. I'd hate to have another laptop issue but I wouldn't mind making another trip over to Zap at all! read more

Very nice and informative in helping repair my MacBook Pro. He was fast and respected my time. I highly recommend him.

Super honest - he could have charged to replace my laptop battery but instead provided guidance on how I can do it myself. Truly appreciate the help and honesty! Thank you and I will recommend you to all my clients. read more

Once again, Julio and Armando to the rescue! I brought my 2009 desktop computer that I thought was ready to be tossed. It needed major repair. It took 1 day service,and my computer was like new. Great service and very reasonable! Majalo guys, Kilipaki read more

I had bought a gaming pc from Julio, just a few months ago and it's having hardware problems. Crashing all the time. And won't connect to the Internet. I'm super disappointed. read more

Excellent service from my first phone call to today when I picked up my device. I had an old desktop that I was holding on to because it had a great deal of photos on it. They explained what I should do, performed the work quickly and saved hundreds of photos for me. Would definitely recommend this business and if I need anything in the future, I'll definitely go back. read more

The owner Julio couldn't be more helpful. My son's computer crashed and he's worked so hard to recover his files. He's been so patient with us. I truly appreciate having found this business. His pricing is fair and the work is quality. 10/10 would recommend!! read more

My gaming rig was having issues staying on for extended periods of time and with over heating - Julio and his team were able to resolve those problems, and my computer seems to be running optimally once more. Thanks again for the timely work you and your team were able to do, I would recommend this shop and I would reach out to them again with further computer issues. read more

My daughter's laptop stopped working. I took my it to Geek squad at Best Buy and they did a lousy job of fixing it. Found Zap Computer Repair here on Google and they actually took the time to find the problem. They took it apart and fixed the problem. Julio and the guys there were super heplful. I reccomend them and will use them in the future. read more

I recently had issues with my laptop that I could not fix myself. I looked online and found zap computer repair. They had a great reading so I thought I'd give him a try. They totally deserve a great rating, Julio is friendly and honest. He was very reasonable with his pricing and fast. I picked my computer up the following day and it was like brand new!!! Julia was great and called me to let me know what the problem was before he fixed it. He also called to Confirm the price he had originally quoted me. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who's having issues if you want it done right! read more

My experience was great from start to beginning the 1st day I called and left a message with my issue name and number and the very next morning he gave me a call back, I dropped off my laptop it had issues of the screen not showing so I thought it was the backlight, anyway, the very next day as my kid is so so sad without her laptop (she uses it for school and a game) I get the phone call that the laptop is ready. The price was perfect , it was great to be honest. With everything else going on, this was the last thing I wanted to deal with or spend money on but it's a necessity for school. I have officially found my repair guy. Thanks a ton. Oh and I forgot to mentioned he cleaned it. It's nice and clean. My teen says "thank you , thank you ,thank you....ooooo it's so clean". read more

Zap Computer Repair - So clean you can see my reflection. - IT Services & Computer Repair Near Me - Whittier, California

Took my computer in for some issues, got an honest answer and deep cleaning, even let me test the computer out in shop to see if the problems were consistent, wanna thank you again man! read more

Stop going to these large stores to buy your computer-wares! All they care about is making money. They have minimal computer knowledge and even less sympathies for your computer problems. The last time I went to one of these places (not naming any names), they were also selling mattresses, kitchenware, water coolers, kids toys, etc. What the heck?! We were referred to Zap Computer Repairs by another friendly computer repair place and were very happy with our purchasing experience. Julio and his techs are so knowledgeable about computers. I don't think they know much about mattresses but I guess that's forgivable. LOL! They are honest and humble. They also have thousands (yes, I said thousands!) of PC, laptops and Apples that they can put together exactly to your specs, regardless if you are a gamer or simply a casual user. Not only did Julio and his team put together a great working computer for us at a awesome price, they also provided great services. They also installed our video card for free. It was not easy since the video card we purchased separately was not one of those simple plug-and-play card. They gave us extra cables and adapters at no extra charge. Give these guys a try. You won't regret it! read more

What first drew me to Zap electronics is that it was fairly close to my home and the basic estimate that the owner gave me was half the price of any place I looked at. They are hands on and get the job done! The people there are lovely, kind hearted, and honest. They went above and beyond to repairing my laptop. I thought my laptop was done, but they got it up and running again! This was my first time going to Zap electronics and it will not be my last. If your devices ever need fixing, they are your people! read more

Friendly and fast service. Had a broken hinge on my daughters HP Laptop. Julio was able to fix it with in a day. Will definitely recommend to family and friends. read more

Julio was genuinely helpful and incredibly proficient in helping me resolve my computer issues. I brought in a Dell desktop that had performance issues. Julio consistently maintained contact with me to update me on the results of his diagnosis, and advised me on what I can do before performing fixes. I am super happy with his results, and will be sure to be back next time! read more

I chose to bring my computer in because of the ratings. My computer had a virus and was told the price upfront. He said it may take up to a week or so. The next day, it was fixed and ready for pick up. My computer runs like new! Zap will be my go to repair shop. I was impressed by their transparency and great customer service. read more

Excellent service! Julio did a good job communicating with me about my computer. The part that he ordered was out of stock for a month so they actually rebuilt the part instead and I didn't have to wait a month! So far my computer is working just fine! He even gave me a 30 day warranty too. Thank you Julio for being honest and saving me money on an expensive part. This is our go-to spot from now on. read more

Stopped by to see what upgrades I can get for my desktop computer (Optiplex 7010), and Julio knew exactly what to do to make my desktop faster and more efficient. When the upgrade was done, he had me test it on-site to verify everything was running well and fast, which it did. I'm really satisfied with the customer service and outcome! Will be stopping by again. read more

What can I say. Totally pleased with the service at Zap. Julio is awesome. I have taken two computers there for maintenance. Excellent job at a reasonable price. Thanks again guys for the speedy return of the computers you worked on. read more

They were very efficient by diagnosing and repairing my daughter's laptop within couple of days. They have great customer service and their pricing was very good. Thank you, Julio read more

In the world of Amazon, and Food Delivery services, we can often forget how important customer service and interaction really is. I had a problem with my computer that I knew I was going to be a pain to resolve. I dreaded emailing a company and waiting for a reply, or navigating an endless list of prompts to finally speak to a human so I can explain my issue. Instead, I took my business to Zap Computer Repair. Not only did they pick up the phone in the first ring, but they were ready and willing to help me. I dropped off my computer and in less than 24 hours, I had it back with my issue resolved. Yes, it was 1 simple interaction, but the customer service, the attention they gave me, and their speedy resolution will make me return with any computer issue I may have. Thank you Julio and the Zap team. read more

Julio and his technician were very helpful. My son spilled water on his gaming PC and fried the motherboard and CPU. Zap computer repair was able to guide me through the entire process of compatible replacement parts and labor quote. Overall, had a great experience with them. Highly recommend! read more

Thank you Yelp for Zap's. I had a new window10 computer that need work so I could gift it. Thanks to Zap I got a new computer back with a few extras added onto it, on the same day I took it in. Now I will be taking my window 11 back to get add On's and cleaned up. I love this place. He does not give a woman a come on like you need this and that. He is 100% honest. read more

I went to repair my laptop for the hinges but once I got it back the aux plug did not work and the charging light does not turn on anymore. They fixed read more

Seeing positive reviews of the place, I came here to fix my computer because gaming performance was poor and laggy and I wasn't 100% sure what was the problem with it. I troubleshooted my computer and game many times, uninstalling the game and reinstalling, reducing graphics quality, refreshing my wifi router, changing efficiency settings etc. but these didn't seem to fix my issue. I think one of the few solutions I had left was to wipe out my computer, which the person at the front desk supported me with (and I believe checked out any other issues with my computer). It was a quick, one-day process and he was very nice to provide me with a lower rate, which I appreciate. After I got home, I reinstalled my game and now it works just fine (it's also on Windows 10 now, and I believe installing Windows 11 also had some level to do with my game's performance). I am satisfied and I recommend this service for computer checkups! read more

My laptop recently became unhinged, or rather the hinge that supports the screen broke, which I failed to notice. When I attempted to close the screen, the hinge cracked the lower right half of the monitor. Being a DIYer, and handy with my hands, I figured I'd watch a few YouTube videos, become a screen replacement expert and save a few bucks. Then I remembered Zap Computer. I live down the street from the shop and have easily passed it hundreds of times on my way back from the Home Depot on Washington Blvd. Let me stop by and hear what they have to say about my unhinged and cracked laptop. Julio was behind the counter when I showed up with my damaged computer. He was straightforward and told me that the screen could be replaced but that the technician would have to see if the hinge had damaged anything else. He said he'd try to find a screen that was affordable and would get back to me the next day. True to his word, the following day Julio called me and told me they could fix it. When he told me what the repair estimate would be, I told him to go for it. Less than a week later, Julio called again and told me my laptop was ready. When I went to pick it up, he turned on the computer to show me the new screen. It was perfect. The hinge was fixed and the monitor resolution was great. I mentioned that it was too bad the camera was inoperable, at least it hadn't worked on the old screen for quite some time. He checked the camera function and voila, the camera was working again. I walked out of there with an almost new laptop, an unbroken screen, and a functioning camera. I recommend Zap if you live in the area and are having computer problems. I will definitely return the next time something happens with my computer, although I hope that it is not anytime soon (no offense Julio) since I have to watch my budget. read more

I was in need of a laptop repair for a lenovo that had a broken attachment between the screen and the keyboard so it couldn't open. Julio was great and immediately gave me an estimate the next day and repaired it the same day at the end of the day. Would definitely return for any other repairs I need done. read more

We recently had the need to call on the trusty owner/tech of Zap Computer Repair, Julio Murillo. Our CPU died after 13 years. Julio served us again with his great expertise, honesty and kindness. Once again he's proven to be valuable and trusting. We will always return to Julio for all our computer repairs and will continue to highly recommend him. read more

I went in because my computer wouldn't open an app I normally use for my work. I spoke to Julio and he was very honest and attentive. He told me to try one more time with the company that provided the service I needed my computer to open. He believed the computer was fine that the issue came from the company providing the service. He was right! There servers were having issues with the new windows 11 updates. I appreciate honesty and will definitely come back to Zap Computers for any issues. Thanks Julio read more

This place has impeccable reviews so we took in my laptop that had died suddenly about 2 years ago. Unfortunately the motherboard was fried. They offered to search out a new mobo for me but in the end it worked out better for me to just buy a new laptop. They pulled the hard drive for me and I appreciated that very much! Worth the fee alone! Great service and could tell we weren't being taken for a ride. Thank you! read more

Took my desktop in because it was acting up , and with tax season here I needed to get it fixed! I saw them on yelp and read reviews and gave them a try. I have an old desktop and was given estimates on fixing it and other options. They gave me a deal on an upgraded desktop similar to mine, so I took it , he even threw in an updated version of windows 10! Came back the next day to pick it up and told me they upgraded me again , same price , but because he knew I did taxes , this newer one was faster and had more gigs and what not. I really appreciate a business looking out for their customers! They went Above and beyond my expectations! Thank you! I'm really enjoying my newer , sleeker looking computer! read more

I experienced nice customer service here and was happy that they were able to restore my old imac within a day. My only indifference is with the price, $120 to download a ios software to my old mac desktop (that was the only service i went there for). I agreed to it initially but when I left the store I couldn't help but feel a bit ripped off. I figured a service like that would be at most $80. Nevertheless i'm happy with my now running computer. read more
