Common situations

The faults we fix every week on call-outs at people's homes. If yours is not on the list, call anyway: we have seen worse.

Slow or frozen computer

Endless start-up, apps that freeze, a black screen when you wake it. We find the real cause, not a surface clean-up.

Suspected virus

Odd pop-ups, alarming messages, encrypted files. We isolate the threat, recover what can be recovered and secure your accounts.

Printer that has stopped responding

Offline, missing driver, scanning that will not work. WiFi, USB, AirPrint: we get your printer running again, whatever the brand.

Patchy WiFi, internet router

Random drop-outs, speeds falling away, rooms with no signal at all. We check your router (Swisscom, Salt, Sunrise, UPC) and your WiFi coverage.

Setting up and configuring

A new Mac or PC to get going, moving your data across, email accounts, parental controls, updates that will not install. We take care of it all.

Smartphone, tablet, syncing

iCloud full, photos no longer backing up, contacts lost, moving from Android to iPhone. We sync everything and tidy up your digital life.

How a repair visit works

Three clear steps, from your first call to the fix in your home.

  1. Senior client in Geneva calling Cours-Informatique.ch for computer repair at home
    Diagnosis in 5 minutes

    You call or write to us

    On 078 238 20 71 or on WhatsApp. You describe the problem in a few words. Together we pick the appointment that suits you.

  2. Cours-Informatique.ch technician and teacher arriving at a client home in Geneva for a repair call-out
    Usually within 24 to 48 hours

    A technician and teacher comes to you

    At the agreed time, at your home anywhere in the canton of Geneva. He finds the real cause, explains it in plain language and fixes the problem in front of you.

  3. The technician and teacher shows the fix on screen with the client, both sitting at the computer
    7 days of WhatsApp follow-up included

    You are left with the fix and the know-how

Frequently asked questions

Prices, timing, the area we cover in Geneva, guarantees: everything people ask us most often about computer repair at home.

How much does computer repair at home in Geneva cost?

Our call-outs are charged at 150 CHF per hour, with no subscription and no commitment. Travel costs are not included and depend on the commune: we give you the exact amount over the phone before we set off, so there are no surprises.

A diagnostic call on 078 238 20 71 is free: we pin down the problem and book the appointment straight away.

How long before you come out?

The vast majority of repairs are booked in within 24 to 48 working hours. For genuinely urgent situations (a workstation down, an active virus, a client presentation within the hour), we try to rearrange the same day.

The quickest route is a direct call on 078 238 20 71. WhatsApp and email are perfect for anything less urgent, or for sending a screenshot of the error.

Do you cover every commune in the canton?

We come out to the city of Geneva and to the nearby communes: Carouge, Lancy, Vernier, Meyrin, Plan-les-Ouates, Onex, Chêne-Bougeries, Thônex. For communes further out (Versoix, Bernex, Bardonnex and so on), we look at it case by case, depending on the schedule and the travel costs.

Do you guarantee that the problem will be solved?

We always tell you the truth about the state of your equipment. If the problem cannot be fixed on the spot (hardware at the end of its life, a fault that needs sending away for repair), we say so plainly and point you towards the most economical option.

Once a visit is resolved, we stay reachable on WhatsApp for the next 7 days in case something comes back.

Which payment methods do you accept?

On the spot once the work is done: TWINT, cash, or bank transfer with a QR invoice sent the same evening. We cannot take card payments at your home. For companies and self-employed people, 30-day invoicing on request.

My computer is really old, can you still help?

Yes. We work just as happily on Mac OS X 10.13 and later and on Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11. On very old machines we tell you honestly whether a repair makes sense, or whether replacing it works out cheaper over six months. We never push you to buy something new for the sake of it.

Monday to Saturday, 9am to 7pm

Still have a question? We are here.

One call is enough to understand your problem and book the visit. You get a real person on the line, not an automated switchboard.
