MLN is a genuine walk-in computer repair shop at 402 Bridge Road, Richmond, open since 1999. Unlike many local competitors who only offer mobile or onsite technicians with no physical premises, you can walk straight in, hand over your laptop, PC or MacBook, and talk face to face with the technician who will be working on it. We repair and service laptops, desktop PCs, MacBooks and MacBook Pros of all makes and models, right here in our Richmond workshop.
A lot of "local" computer repairers you'll find online don't actually have a shopfront — they're a mobile technician who visits your home or office and nothing more. MLN is different. Our Richmond store has been trading on Bridge Road since 1999, with a dedicated service centre on site and technicians you can meet in person. If something needs a second look, a spare part, or a longer bench repair, your computer is already in a proper workshop rather than sitting in the back of a car.
We're an easy trip for customers across Richmond and the surrounding suburbs, including Cremorne, Burnley, Abbotsford, Collingwood, Fitzroy, South Yarra, Hawthorn and Kew. See our Richmond store details or store locations page for directions, or drop in with your computer during business hours.
MLN specialises in laptop and notebook, desktop PC, MacBook and MacBook Pro repairs, upgrades, inspections and spare parts, on all makes and models, with the highest quality workmanship. We service brands including Apple, ASUS, Venom, Toshiba, HP, Compaq, Acer, Lenovo, Fujitsu, Sony, LG, Samsung and Panasonic, among many others.
From cracked screens to keyboard and hinge damage, our technicians work on laptops and notebooks from every major brand. We also carry a wide range of laptop parts, including batteries, power adapters, memory, hard disk drives, SSDs and keyboards.
PC repair is one of the most common jobs our technicians handle, whether it's a desktop that won't boot, a failing hard drive, an upgrade to a faster SSD, or general troubleshooting for a slow or unreliable machine. Bring your tower or all-in-one PC in to our Richmond shop and we'll take a look.
As well as PCs and Windows laptops, we repair MacBook and MacBook Pro computers, including MacBook screen replacement and MacBook battery replacement, along with general MacBook servicing and upgrades.
A cracked, dim or lined screen doesn't mean your laptop or MacBook is finished. Our screen replacement service covers laptop and notebook displays as well as MacBook and MacBook Pro screens, restoring a clear picture without needing a whole new computer.
If your laptop or MacBook battery no longer holds charge, drains quickly, or your machine only runs while plugged in, battery replacement is usually a straightforward and cost-effective fix compared to buying a new computer.
Spilled a drink on your laptop or dropped it in the rain? Water damage can affect the keyboard, motherboard and internal components. The sooner a water-damaged laptop or PC is looked at, the better the chance of saving it, so bring it in as soon as possible rather than trying to dry it out and turn it back on yourself.
An SSD upgrade or extra RAM is one of the best ways to bring an older laptop or PC back to life. Swapping a mechanical hard drive for a solid state drive, or adding more memory, can make everyday tasks noticeably faster without the cost of a new machine.
A slow, cluttered or virus-affected PC or laptop can often be brought back to a clean, fast state with a proper Windows reinstall, along with virus and spyware removal. This is a common request for machines suffering from pop-ups, sluggish performance or repeated error messages.
If a hard drive or SSD has failed, don't assume your files are automatically gone for good. Speak to our technicians in Richmond about your data recovery options before writing off important documents, photos and files.
MLN also supports local businesses across Richmond and the surrounding suburbs with repairs, upgrades and servicing for office PCs and laptops. If your business relies on ageing or unreliable computers, bring them in to our Richmond workshop and our technicians will assess what needs fixing, upgrading or replacing.
MLN's service centre is based at our Richmond store at 402 Bridge Road, an easy trip for customers in Richmond, Cremorne, Burnley, Abbotsford, Collingwood, Fitzroy, South Yarra and Hawthorn.
